The world often seems like a harsh place to you, as your heart has been battered and bruised over the years. It is difficult for you to trust other people easily, and you always tend to have suspicions in the back of your mind.
This is partially because you have very hard standards for everything and everyone in life, and no one can live up to them all the time. But since you never miss a trick, you never miss a moment when someone lets you down.
You tend to think that life is best approached from within a suit of armor that hides what you are really thinking and feeling from the world. But, while you are pretty good and not letting your emotions spill out, you can’t help but let everything that happens flow in and affect you on a personal level.
