Her past heartbreaks have turned her cold.
At least, that is what she wants everyone to think.
That is the part she is trying to play.

That heartbreak still haunts her.
She hesitates to enter new relationships because the pain of her last love is still fresh in her mind.
Those past heartbreaks have turned her cold.Emotionless.
At least, that is what she wants everyone to think.
That is the part she is trying to play.
She refuses to put herself in such a vulnerable position again.

Instead of flirting with him, she will besarcasticwith him.
She will tease him.
She will joke around with him.
She wont even realize that she is flirting with him, because she is also lying to herself.
She is pretending that she is stronger than the pull of love.
That her heart is guarded with barbed wire and no one is getting through.
Of course, she cannot live that lie forever.
Once she realizes she has feelings for someone, she isnt excited about what the future could bring.
She is disappointed in herself.
She hates when someone has a hold over her.
She acts like she doesnt care because its easier that way.
She would rather hurt someone else than get hurt herself.
She acts like she doesnt care because then there is no chance ofrejection.
That way, she is not alone because someone turned her down.
She is alone because shechoseto stay that way.
She acts like she doesnt care about the people who mean the most to her because she doesntwantto care.
She doesnt want to get into another relationship because she doesnt think the highs are worth the lows.
