"When they said, ' I'm just scared that you'll be unhappy,' what I really felt they were saying was 'I'm scared that if you continue being yourself, we will make you unhappy.' A sort of threat, veiled in kindness. Perhaps they told themselves that they wanted to protect me from being unhappy. After all, how hard is it to keep a secret, if the prize for keeping it is a life of happiness..."
This is going to wreck me.
