I knew that was crossing the line with him, but I was hoping he would feel comfortable enough to tell me since he was telling me about his family.
He pressed his lips together and took in a deep breath.
"I do not talk about my past relationships, there's no point, what's past is past and why revisit it. I don't have a girlfriend, nor do I want one."
His comment hurt deep down, just hearing him say he didn't want a girlfriend was heart breaking. It's for the best though, because I could never be his girlfriend and he could never be my boyfriend. I figure if I keep telling myself that, I'd actually convince myself.
"Why not, even if you've been hurt before, you pick yourself up and move on. Everyone's been hurt at least once in their life, some more than others, but you have to make a choice what to do with that hurt." I sounded way too casual about that, and who was I to talk anyway.
"It's not that simple Wen Wen, trust me."
