And yet a lot of women want men to be more emotional. Once guys show that to them they tend to run the other way. Anyway, glad to see you are moving past that fear and getting better.
Oh hell no. Any woman who doesn't REALLY TRULY appreciate it when you express yourself more openly ain't a girl you ought to bother yourself over. She doesn't probably really care about YOU but only what you can give her, either materially or in bed or both.
I can assure you that if I'm ever with a guy who doesn't feel he can express himself to me I'll probably start wondering where I'm going wrong that he doesn't trust me. And I reallllly don't think I'll run the other way when he opens up.
As long as he's constructive about it. I'm self-destructive enough for an entire army, I really don't need to be in a relationship with someone just like me. And I'm trying to work on that. If I were to be with someone who's not even trying to be uplifting... They'd probably wind up dragging me back down.
But whatever... I'm not even on the market really atm. I'm waay too involved in trying to make myself into someone worthy of someone else right now to afford the time for a boyfriend.
