Every time I try to open up to a new person, I feel vulnerable. - 10 views

#1 samibaceri on 03 Dec 24Actually, I work with a psychologist and try to find that balance so that I don't seem cold or unresponsive to people, because I'm not that way. But at the same time, I want to open up enough so that I don't feel too vulnerable. It's still hard. I'm afraid of getting hurt again.

#3 balanceblind on 03 Dec 24Taking care of yourself and being gentle with yourself is everyone's primary goal. There's no point in forcing yourself to open up to everyone and trying to show who you really are. If you feel the need to hide a bit, to seem a little colder, there's a reason for that. Try chatting on sites like https://www.onenightfriend.com/one-night-stand-dating.html, where emotional closeness is unlikely to be required. One-night meet-ups like this have really helped me after relationships ended. It's like I get what I need, but I still feel at peace because there's no pressure for open relationships.
