So true Abbs but it is rare that we find the kind of love that takes off the masks...............Unfortunately, in most cases...........our relationships just add new masks. When you find someone who loves you for you, don't let go!
maybe you have you just resisted it, maybe to afraid to come out? i know it's hard but look your daughter has to have shown you this, look at her all grown up coming out of her shell. who taught her that? well some come out faster then others. your time will come!
