They can't, and you won't.
You have to open yourself up to a lot of potential pain in order for someone to know you.
The truth is though, that the anticipation of that hurt is much worse than the actual result of your openness. This anticipation can last years, however, the things that we wait for, whether they be good or bad only last an instant. Besides, the only way to know much joy in life is to open one's self to much sorrow. That is the way of things...

Thanks for always being there with something positive to say to me.

You do not know how much I appreciate you.
