[Dislike. Let him hoard. Let him live in this box fort with all the boxes securely taped shut.
He types and deletes an awful lot of sentences. Most of them are in the vein of this being a stupid conversation in the first place, of this not being her business, and while both those things are technically true they still don't feel right to say. The last time he confided in her it helped.
It's ridiculous that some of the best emotional advice he's got in a decades came from a teenager with blue hair but he's learned to stop judging people's worth based on his own assumptions.]
You've seen enough of me by this point to know I'm not the kind of man a young woman like her should be hitching her wagon to.
[That's not really it either, but it's the easier path to take and it's not wrong. There are so many good reasons that that would be a bad idea and all of them boil down to 'I'm Stanford Pines' in the end.]
How she hasn't realized that already I don't know, but our friendship isn't one I'm interested in jeopardizing.
[There it is. I mean, it's in Ford-ese, but it's there. I'm scared to lose her entirely.]
