From Our Readers: To the Guy Who Made Me Believe

Just when I thought everything was real. Just when I thought that everything you showed me meant something. You made me believe that an "us" could be possible, but you ended up breaking my heart instead.

You weren't exactly the perfect daughter. But before you get mad at me, hear me out first. I know how it feels to have your efforts crushed like a tin can right before your eyes.
