I just realized that I am emotionally available. I have all these questions and I only share them over the Empty closest forums and with my one close friend. It's easier here but I could never be that open with other people. How can I change this?
It's difficult opening up to people because being that vulnerable is scary. I mean, not knowing if someone will use whatever you have shared with them against you is pretty nerve wracking. I'd recommend that you start off slowly because it really does take time letting someone in. Even now, I have been dating this guy for months and I'm still not comfortable with sharing certain information with him. So, take baby steps...and once it feels right as far as opening up to someone, you will know.
