What do you do when you see something more in a person than what they will allow to be seen. When they have this "I don't care if anyone cares" front but you can see thru it and see the soft side of them that they are too afraid to show. When you know they could do anything they want if they'd only open their eyes and grow up just a little bit. How do you just give up on someone like that? I'm trying. But they know that I can see thru them and they won't let me just forget. How can you blind yourself to that? I have plenty of reasons to just let them go and I have given chance after chance only to have those chances used and abused. I have said several times "no more chances" and yet I find myself giving in each time. I don't like the person this is making me become. I feel myself turning into this person just to defend myself from falling into the same situation again and again. How can I break this vicious cycle? How do you just give up?
