You're not weak for feeling like this. Nobody is; that'd just be ridiculous--it just means that you feel things in the capacity that most people do, maybe more. It's okay and normal to feel lonely, trust me. Everyone does.
[Quietly, he reaches over to tap Giorno's hand, looking more serious...well, than he ever really has.]
It's not bad, per se, but if you're in a bad situation and nobody knows, then it's hard to get out of that kind of hole. Pretending that everything is fine doesn't solve any problems, especially if you convince yourself that you're fine. There's not much to be gained from that. And, well--this sounds kind of ridiculous, but it is true: people don't appreciate being lied to, and they can and will find out, like I did.
[Carlos frowns, almost imperceptible and still very significant. He thinks of a desert. He thinks of a mountain. He thinks of a Smiling God, and he does not smile. Again, he touches Giorno's hand, letting his own hand stay there.]
Don't keep bad things from your loved ones, or they'll just worry more.
