Not the nicest.
Perhaps your perspective of the world is a fairy tale one, but not everything and everyone is as transparent and innocent as your naive mind wants to think. Imaging a perfect world is one thing; living in it is another. Being nice doesn't always win you trust and friends, it just gets you bullied; and you'll just keep finishing last. Humans are made to be self-centered; that's our nature: every man for himself. From Charles Darwin to Thomas Hobbes; from biology to the working of the world, we all know this... This is a dog-eat-dog world. Imperfect, but real.

And I really always wondered which came first: you having the need to be protected or you being weak... And I realize it's kind of a chicken and egg situation. Perhaps it wasn't that good an idea for you parents to give you so much when you are young. You have everything: family, friends, education and whatnot. You try your best to not take things for granted; but your emotional self betrayed you. One small setback and you'll tear, and your world will end. That is really not the healthiest way to live in this imperfect world!

I love my freedom and I always believe in allowing my partner to be independent. This time round, I'm forced to be an overly-attached boyfriend. Perhaps someday you'll learn and grow; for now, I'll be there for you...
