in recent weeks, i've had a few people share with me that they believe the fact that i can be so open and honest about my feelings is an admirable quality. frankly, it doesn't really feel all that admirable from this side. it seems to me that being this way just scares men and pushes me even further away from them.
i open myself up. they look inside and determine i'm not someone with whom they want to engage. i can understand why so many people hide behind facades and stay closed to the world around them. at least when they may experience rejection, they have the excuse that the other person doesn't know the real them. not so for me.
