“If you expect nothing from somebody you are never disappointed.” – Sylvia Plath
This quote hits me. It resonates a sense of loneliness, it makes feel like the only way to shield myself from the disappointment from others is not to expect nothing at all, and to me that translate as keeping people at a distance.
The inverse way of looking at this is, having courage in allowing others into your life, knowing that disappointment is a possibility.
