Huh. What makes you certain he is?
If I deserve better, why doesn't he? We're talking about who has been on their own since 15 years old., has had NO parental guidance, and has had to figure out every inane aspect of this life alone. Why doesn't he deserve the chance to learn to love?
He isn't a bad person. He's made some bad mistakes and some poor life choices but he has never had any positive influence.
He grew up hearing he was nothing but a worthless, no good peice of **** so much that it physically scares him to be put on the spot and name one good quality about himself. It's extremely disheartening to see strangers treating him the same way. I can only imagine how many times he has been wrote off before given his chance.
It's no small wonder he has an issue with being open and is the way he is . And he's only 22.
