I woke up to the fact that I've been compartmentalizing people. Sectioning off different aspects of their personality and treating them like strangers. As if they aren't just one and the same. It's gotten me in trouble to fall in love with The good you's and developing too much leniency for the bad you's. Almost ignoring the bad altogether. But sometimes we have to put it altogether to accurately make an assessment on someone's character and if we really love them, And even if you really love them, Is it safe for you to love them? I can't hide from the whole anymore. Its gotta be all or nothing.
