I had a terrible rejection in college that made me distrust women. I hadn't had a girlfriend for 10 years, and I had made up Kokoro to never trust women again. But then, for some reason, a junior at work started to care about me. To be honest, I almost misunderstood, but at the very last moment, I held myself back. Fed up with our relationship not progressing, she invited me to a hotel for some reason. "Let's just say I was drunk and have sex," she said, and even I crossed the line.
