The truth. I'm afraid to ask for the truth sometimes because I know I can tell when someone's not being themselves or something's going on But I'm afraid that what they have to say is going to change everything drastically. So I guess if for me it would be the truth.
I think depending on the person, I'm afraid to ask the truth. I think like when it comes to romantic interests and stuff because nowadays you just never know what people and sometimes it really does hurt but you need it.
Literally nothing because fear isn't real and if fear isn't real what is there to be afraid of? You know it's all within our own minds and if you think it's real then it's there if it's not then it's not
I commend you because my brain does not think about that. It'd be like, you remember that time? And I'm like, what time? And then this is exactly, and now I'm just spiraling.
Thank you. And I used to have the same problem until I discovered that I am in control of my thoughts. Thoughts have power and I am the only one who carries that power. Nobody else does. So then I am able to control them.
My thoughts no longer wander. Now I get to choose whether I want to think about something like that or I don't. And you have the same power and I hope you find that within yourself soon so that you can have peace.
Thank you so much. I really needed that and I really appreciate that. And thank you for sharing as well. It's a work in progress. I'm a work in progress so it's definitely something I will keep in mind because...
You're very welcome and you're also correct. You are a work in progress I did not achieve this mentality that I have now overnight. It happened over time gradually actually Bits and bits of information you'll get there. Just believe
I have a hard time asking for people's time as well honestly. I find it very intimidating sometimes because it's just like I don't know if you actually want to.
I don't know if you actually want to interact with me or not and nine times out of ten I'm people's backup plan with things so I'm learning to just Entertain myself, you know be around myself more.
That is one of my biggest hesitance when it comes to asking for help because I never want to give somebody the satisfaction of saying well if it wasn't for me you wouldn't have X Y & Z. I'd rather do it by myself.
It's definitely a journey of learning when to say something, how to say it and get it get out of your head because sometimes the clothes mops don't be fed is true.
And sometimes you just don't want to be a burden and then you feel indebted and you like, I'd rather go through this than to ask for help because it's so much to go along with that.
I don't know why, but it's a whole other level of anxiety for me when it comes to confrontation on like, what is our position, where is this going, are we still good, when it comes to friends specifically.
This, this is the one. If I could give this a gold star, I would because it's such just... You may think one thing and then reality is like nah, it's really something else.
So an example would be a change of tone or I notice that a friend is distancing herself from me and I just don't know what to say because I feel like whatever will progress will just get worse I guess.
Oh, I 100% agree with you. Confrontation. Oh my goodness. I do not do what confrontation is like. Can we move past this and they don't go as fast as you?
And I want to say like sometimes people don't know how to communicate when they're uncomfortable, so it's like So what do I do? And then you just have that feeling in the pituital stomach like why do we got to go through this?
Oh my god, people don't know how to communicate when they're being confronted. This part really resonated with me because I'm one of those people. It's just so hard, like, no matter how proficient of a communicator you are, it's the situation.
I do believe that a lot of how the communication happens between the confrontations stems from our previous traumas and what we've experienced back in the day. And I think that's what contributes to this fear or being afraid to ask.
Sometimes I'm afraid to say if someone's breasts think like I don't want to be rude I want to say it in a nice way as possible. So I'll be like, hey man, your breast thinks instead of damn your breast Think you need to brush your teeth, you know, there's a difference but yeah
