I meant it when I said you weren't the first and only. When it comes to offering sweet-nothings and empty promises, there have been many.
Well, what can I say? Fantasies are always the easiest. Just put your head in the clouds.
Then, start selling me those sweet swords. I've heard them all before. They're nothing new, but do that anyway.
Perhaps you've been used to getting all you want, often without trying hard or not at all.
Yes, I'm sure there have been women who had thrown themselves at you. As if I care. I try not to judge.
That's not who I am, though. When I offer a friendship, I really mean it. I don't flirt easily.
I guess back then, you hadn't met someone like me. You'd probably thought that all women were the same when it came to you. They couldn't resist your so-called charm.
Then what about me? What has made me different than the rest -- or at least -- most of them?
Don't get me wrong. I may appear sweet and innocent on the outside. In fact, some people I know have cruelly said that I am easily fooled sometimes. It's something they tend to laugh about me all they like, no matter how much it hurts.
However, I'm not that gullible. Time has changed and shaped (or reshaped?) me a lot. I'm always a curious cat. Although I don't voice that out loud, deep down -- I always question.
When we first met, we were both broken inside (or so it had seemed to me). We both needed someone to talk to. Loneliness always does that to you.
