I understand what you mean, after my ex it's hard to open up your heart to another girl as you don't want to risk it. You don't want to feel the pain that you had before. It's like a scar to the soul, that pain sticks with you.
But, on the flip side letting someone in in due time can give you the feeling of having a new lease of life. We a great woman beside you, you feel like you can take on the world.
Sadly though, I find it hard to find that "right" girl, but as long as I have my hope, the chance is always there.
Talking of girls, the chick i had mentioned in here that I was seeing a month or so a go, well it went pear shaped. No idea why or what's going on with her but she just strangely went from hitting up my phone 24-7 for weeks to the other day of just not replying to anything. As I said, I have no idea what happened? We were getting along great, even the last time we spoke we had a really good convo and made plans for a date. Then 2 days later she went non contact mode, wouldn't answer any texts. Left me hanging not knowing anything. It would be nice if she gave me some sort of reasoning instead of just cutting me out.
Anyway, I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.
