understanding how to look stupid, 3.1.17

i’m texting a friend, and she’s telling me she’s immune to falling in love. i ask her why and she responds by saying she doesn’t want to be hurt. she also doesn’t want to look stupid. i ask her if she fears not being able to recover, and she tells me shes pretty resilient as she brings up the situation with her ex to support her claims. i begin explaining to her that holding down someone who was ungrateful doesn’t make you look stupid, but instead, it makes the other person look dumb. how you play someone real to you because you couldn’t be real with yourself? i don’t get it. i hope i’m right though, because if not, then based on my last relationship, i’m the stupid one. but how can i be the stupid one, when i’m the one who’s happy with myself?

i don’t get it neither, some people aren’t made for the truth…
