I guess I'll say it. A couple of years ago, a girl I had cared deeply about and the only one who had really loved me for who I am (or so I thought at the time), having gone back to Fl had stopped communicating with me at some point. A long time passed and one day (when _I_ seeked her out) she explained she had been in an accident.. that a large truck smashed into her while driving, that she had been in a coma all those months, and that she had lost her memory. I was naturally shocked and overwhelmed..
Anyways.. I found out by chance later on that it never happened.
The matter and the story are of course quite complicated
But indeed.. there went my ability to trust anyone for life.
And for the most part I've been in a 'given-up' state with respect to girls and relationships since then, often not unhappily so.
Q: Same question..
