Title: How open can you be?
Post by: cmddj7 on October 13, 2013, 08:05:03 pm: Going on an emotional journey does not make you weak or a failure. Once you are open with yourself, the easier it will be to open up with others.

I think you still have to be a little guarded. In this day and age people read between the lines too much. I would not like to spill it to someone who just wants to use you to get something from you. You have to be careful. Get to know a person before you pour out your soul!

Post by: loulizlee on November 06, 2013, 04:26:19 pm: Like some others posted here, it takes me a while to get to know a person and feel comfortable enough to be open with them. I am and have always been pretty shy. However, I find the older I get, the less I worry what people think of me. I can be open if I choose, or, I can be wary and keep it to myself if I have a feeling the person I am communicating with is not trustworthy.

Post by: thtrngng on November 07, 2013, 09:21:22 am: It doesn't matter to me about how open I can be because I believe we all hold back a little, but I would rather just be honest with my feelings or emotions toward any subject. I believe that honesty is the best policy.
