i think when someone tells you that you have too much of this or too much of that. its something they actually love about you, but every time they allow themselves to rediscover this, it breaks them. because love can be painful for some who never felt its tender caress. sometimes people were wounded by someone they held so dear that the next person they come in contact with that makes them feel the same way, it hurts with a ferocity that they can’t seem to shake. so, be patient with them, allow them to heal with your love. they need time. you are more than enough for them, they just don’t feel the same way about themselves. people who have been hurt like that, don’t bounce back as easily as some would hope. and that’s ok, its more than ok. they need to take time to heal properly.
