No, i'm not saying that you havent been through a hard time, but we all react in different ways to bad things. My shyness purely portrays the fact that I don't want to get close to someone for this sort of situation to happen again. It was purely to help you to understand where i'm coming from. But I think you've taken offence from it for which I am sorry.

Converse,

I'm glad that you understand where im coming from. It has been hard to deal with those things but I am really grateful for the friends I do have because they are true friends and have always been there for me (and vice versa of course) It's also made me more understanding too when people are down.
