I really like you a lot, and have for a few years now.  I was going to try to be with you, now that you are single, but ****  that putting my heart on my sleeve ****!  I'm smarter than that!  Too many times have I had it knocked off and onto the ground,  stomped and smeared through the mud, and sent through the grinder. Why would I put my heart on my sleeve to let that dumb **** happen again. Prove to me that you can keep my heart safe and maybe then I'll let you have a peek!
