Lookback: After university ended

Got involved with someone who treated me differently in public

He was extremely affectionate privately but distant and uncomfortable in public, damaging my trust and self-esteem

What I wish I knew
"He would have been honest about not wanting a relationship"
If I could tell you one thing
"Be cautious of people who treat you differently in public vs private"
