" Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down. "

Opening up to people about your life can be hard sometimes due to the fear of getting hurt by letting people into your life. Sometimes you want to be reserved so you don't have to deal with the damage that can cause by inflicting your past or pain points.

It's okay to put walls so that people don't enter your boundary and also to see who is willingly interested enough to break those walls and get to know you.
