People exploit--it's in their nature. Wearing your heart on your sleeve is brave, but foolish. If you let anyone see your weakness, they will use it against you. Never give anyone a way to take you down. Never let them know what gets under your skin. Everyone has an agenda--no one is to be trusted. Not you, not me, not him, not her. But put on a pretty face and fake what hurts you and what makes you happy. Anything to survive.
