Distance.

How far would you go to protect someone you care about?

Would you turn away from the other people who care about you?
Would you do anything to protect them, including hurting those you misled to thinking that you actually do care?

When someone opens up to you, pour out whatever is inside of them, do you make use of that person's vulnerability to have them accomplish the task that you know you will not do because it taints the image you portray to others?

Or do you simply pretend to give a fuck about something, then go on talking behind that person's back?

Thing is, does it really have to be this complicated?
Why can't interaction with others be as easy as 123?
