What It Means to Fall for the Girl Who’s a Little Bit Broken

A girl who is a little bit broken will be unlike any other girl who you will ever love. That much is for sure. She’ll be the toughest puzzle to crack and she won’t show you her scars easily. But she’s also the girl who will change your life - when her walls come down her love is powerful, and it’ll change both of you forever. 

She will be careful with how much to reveal. This might be confusing - how can someone who’s so strong with so much fiery, be so guarded all at once? It’s like one moment she’s extroverted, the next introverted - you can’t ever seem to figure her out. 

Here’s the thing, she’ll be so charming and life of the party that you’ll forget how much she actually lives in her head. Don’t let the charm fool you - underneath all that sass she’s extremely introspective, prone to overthinking everything. Tease her mercilessly, but be gentle with her heart. She might seem like she has it all figured out, she might seem all chilled and collected, but inside she’s full of depth and vulnerabilities that she shows to very few.

She’ll protect her heart with a lot of armor because she once gave it away too quickly and too easily. She’s afraid to fall again because love consumes her, and she wants to be sure this time. She wants to be sure that you’re worth it. That you won’t leave. 

But none of that will spill out very easily. Her reaction to her emotions is to compose herself because a lot of the times, it’s too much for her to handle. She’ll tell herself that she can be casual, that it doesn’t have to mean anything. But the truth is, her feelings always catch up to her. It might just take her more time. And when it does catch up, it comes tenfold. 

Expect her to pull away from you, especially when she realizes how much she likes you. Give her space to come back to you, but show her how much you care. She’s secretely hoping that you’ll be the one to break down all her walls. 

Expect her to be stingy with trust, to only give a little bit at a time, but every piece of her heart that she gives will be the most exhilarating feeling you’ve ever experienced.

Believe that she’s falling for you faster than she’ll ever admit and in a way that you’ve never experienced before. She needs your patience. To understand that her layers can sometimes get in the way of her happiness, but if you stick around, if you show her she can trust you, she’ll be the greatest love you’ll ever have.
