FYI

May not accept friend requests if we don't talk first.  Not interested in friend collecting.

("may", as in maybe)

(also, this isn't saying don't request, just don't expect me to accept.  I hope you let me know if you're interested)

Only interested in someone who actually wants to talk, as in, someone who wants someone to listen.

No, I'm not perfect, I know that, and I don't pretend to be any better than I am.  If anything, I'll probably refuse to take credit for anything.

Yes, I have issues, I won't lie, or pretend like I don't, but I don't mean to be a bother, please respect that.

I do the best I can, and I'm tired of being treated like shit, or judged like I'm something awful, like I have intentions I don't.  I literally just want to be good for someone.

Tired of being toyed with, and abandoned by people who pretend to care.  Don't bother trying to add me if you're not open to a commitment.  Not saying you have to, but be honest, don't lie about caring and shit when you don't. and don't make empty promises.

Honestly, I'm tired of people making things about me, insisting I'm not a bother, and pushing me to talk, and then just disappearing once they're bored or lose interest.  No, I don't like talking about myself, I never did, I don't like attention, and talking about my issues doesn't help me feel better, and I'm not looking for someone to make me feel better.  I'm looking for someone who understands how to appreciate someone who cares, and will actually talk to me like they want someone to care.  I'm looking for someone who is willing to be vulnerable, and lean on someone else, not someone who acts like they never need anyone.

If I can trust you to be real, I'll tell you everything, but I'm not being the first to lay my heart out on the table anymore.
