In the Instagram video, reposted by TMZ, Spears provided a caption for the scene showcasing Asghari without his shirt.
"The time he picked me up ... It's weird cause there are always strange turns for relationships with friends, family, or your loved ones in the of any journey you're on with someone."
The "Baby One More Time singer confessed," "Looking back is hard sometimes but it's honestly crucial ... I'm honestly too sensitive in most situations ."
"I speak about my past sometimes because I want to protect myself from the same mistakes as before !!!"
In the lengthy Instagram post, Spears further said, "What I usually do if I'm going through too much is shut down, but I sometimes lose the ability to figure out what's going on or how I feel at all !!!"
"Sometimes I'm scared to feel anything because I know I'm too sensitive."
"Being numb is the worst, I think, but there's safety in that because I feel like I'm subconsciously protecting myself from feeling any importance at all!!! It's tricky because that's what people can take advantage of."
