I am afraid.  I am very, very afraid.  I am afraid of people.  I don't trust people.  My trust issues span every single kind of person there is: women, men, children, adults, teenagers, teenagers who are trapped in adult bodies.  I am afraid that they will take advantage of me.

My Sister was Born in the Car
