In all my relationships,

it caused problems

but a relationship, you should be able to

talk to people and work things out,

and I was quiet, I just wouldn't talk.

They'd ask me what was wrong,

and I'd say "Oh nothing is wrong,

I'm just moody," and after a while

they just got tired of it.

And I don't blame them, to be honest.

I mean you can only go on for so long with,

without holding a conversation trying

to find out what was wrong, and it

made them feel like I didn't love them,

which was far from the truth.
