It was a shocker to everyone and we are still shaken by the realization. Divine doesn't want to be "that girl" the one men can smell the daddy issues on from a mile away.

Stamped clear of the dreaded "trust issues" but now, our sexy host has realized she isn't in the clear. She's simply isolated. Now, she catches glimpse of these issues", lurking in the deep caverns of her mind patiently waiting for the moment when she has to put trust in someone else's hands. They sulk around waiting to reinforce those negative thought patterns.

How does one even do boundaries, let alone put them in place? In theory, these things should be simple but most people, Divine included, need a recipe.
