Hey Anita,

It’s not that I didn’t like myself as a kid it was the problem of being extremely shy. Through high school I really found myself as a leader/someone that could make other smile. I like to joke around a lot. Seeing other people happy makes me happy. So I guess when I had to receive the news from her that I wasn’t making her happy I was completely crushed.

I like to be the one people depend on for some reason.

As far as the burden goes…she probably felt that I needed her too much, but it was only because I figured that she should reciprocate the same amount of love I was showing her, which she wasn’t.
