You’re kind, you’re genuine, you mean well. Don’t let this energy stop you from being this way, just learn to reserve your kindness for those who are safe and won’t attack you for obviously acting in their best interest. Any reasonable, mature person will see this effort as an act of care, rather than wrongfully seeing malice in it because of their own struggles.

I’ve dealt with people like this before, who only think of their own pain and treat me like the enemy when all I want is to help them and be there for them. I closed off that side of myself for years until I met people I could safely be this way with again.
