Jordan, I know this is difficult, but you just have to try very hard. You have to...
I told you I am trying. You keep pushing. I don't know what you want from me.
Well, okay. At some level, we're all the same. We all have things we hide, things we keep buried.
Like what? What do you keep buried?
This is not about me.
You want me to tell you things, to trust you, but you don't have to say anything? Is that fair? Don't you trust me?
OK. I can't follow through.
On what?
On anything. Once something gets in my way, it's like a chemical reaction. I just shut down, and I give up. I'm just looking for an excuse to stop, because in the end it's easier to do that than to risk being hurt and disappointed again.
You mean with men?
Men, my career, my family... pick your poison.
