A girl who isn't exactly the best at expressing her emotions can be a diamond in the rough. It's not that she isn't sweet, it's just that her sweetness is hidden underneath a lot of, well, rough. A girl like this needs to be handled a little more carefully. While nine out of ten times she'll put on a tough act, there are times where she will need you. She's not as tough as she makes herself out to be. There will be times where she is a lot to handle, but she will be worth it. With a little reassurance, and a few reminders, you'll have to get her to trust you. To know that it's okay to not be the tough one for once.
1. She may come across as being cold-hearted at times... she's far from it. She's used to distancing herself from her own emotions, let alone dealing with someone else's.
2. Chances are she won't make the first move. She will probably ignore your first attempt as well. And your second. Don't be discouraged, keep trying. She wants to know that you think she's worth it.
3. She isn't the best at communication, so you may have fights over tension that doesn't even need to exist. Don't be afraid to ask her about what's bothering her, even if she doesn't tell you the first time around.
4. You might know her true feelings or have her figured out better than she does. Chances are she's busy trying to convince herself she doesn't have feelings in the first place.
5. If she tells you something about her past, or something that is bothering her...it's a bigger deal than what you may think. Pay attention to the little things.
6. She is more likely to hide how much she cares about you with sarcastic remarks. Don't let it fool you, look past the attitude, and notice the sweetness behind it all.
7. She might push you away at times when she feels that you're getting too close. Not because she doesn't care, but because she's scared of the outcome. Don't push farther away, come closer.
8. If she calls you out on things that are not your fault, don't think that it's because of you. Misplaced blame happens often for her. Don't let it get to you, chances are she already feels bad.
9. She probably won't text you first, or send you super long, cheesy texts in the beginning. And when she does, it's a big deal. While a text message doesn't mean much, it's a big deal for her to put herself out there for you. Recognize the little things.
