Which one is it?
It’s a fine line between possessive and protective. Maybe I’m a bit of both. I would say it’s just my character as well as my star sign that makes me the way I am. Coupled with life experiences as well.
I don’t get crazy, I don’t do crazy stuff when I have these feelings. To make it clear, I don’t get territorial over all my friends and things or lovers. You see, for these feelings to occur, I must have felt a strong connection or bond with the other party. Also, the intensity depends on the strength of that bond. The more I value that person, the more I cherish that person, the stronger these feelings of wanting to protect them. Don’t get me wrong, it doesn’t mean these people are so vulnerable that they can’t protect themselves, it’s just that, as Friend, I don’t wish for them to go through the pain and turmoil that I can foresee. If I can help prevent that, why wouldn’t I? I really don’t see myself as being possessive, but it may come off as such. Like I said, fine line. I just don’t like to see my friends being taken advantage of, being bullied or being suckered.
It’s a cruel world out here, though my faith in humanity has been revived a couple of times but, times have changed. People are more selfish to their own needs, wanting to get ahead at the expense of others. Or even ride along with their successes but not wanting to prove their worth. It makes me angry when I see people doing this to a dear Friend.
Life.
