After having a bad-end with your now ex-partner, it was only fair that you'd have difficulty trusting anyone romantically again. They cheated on you, and left you in the dust once you’d confronted them about it. As a result of this, you ended up pushing everyone away — isolating yourself from others and turning your back to those who really cared about you.

He would always prepare a big, romantic surprise for you, extravagant and flashy. And again and again, he'd have his advances declined by you, rejected. You thought he was a sweet boy, but you also thought you wouldn’t be able to meet his standards.
