Vunerablity :D?
Is vunerability a good quality or bad?
Do you think it is always best to put your feelings and yourself out there?
I mean what if they are unjusified feelings? Where do you draw the line as a person in determining when the best time to speak them is, OR if at all? Too often I feel everyone goes through this push pull fight with in them. When the best time it is to speak it to a friend, family member, or lover. Which then brings us to even the people who dont wish to play a game or any games with relationships , always end up doing. Because in essence holding back it all is playing a game the game of timing… the game of hiding from ….hurt? dissapointment?or anger? hahaha oh well
give me your thoughts on all this too ![]()

I don’t think being open and vulnerable to everyone we meet is necessarily a good idea, but that being said, I do feel that I am more guarded with people I am “close” to than I would like to be.
As for the timing issue in relationships… that’s a poignant one for me right now. I don’t think I’m afraid of being hurt by laying all my cards on the table, but I worry that I may ruin my chances by being too forward, by appearing too needy and/or desperate.
Great topic
I am not the best person to comment on this topic by any means. i am a very private person to most and way to open with others. I hate playing games but as you said that in and of itself is a game so what do i know. I know there has to be a point where you do have to trust others and that is extremely hard for me. It seems like when i do i am always let down. But I know i have to trust and i am learning that one step at a time. i guess the cliche is right no pain no gain or maybe no risk no reward. Getting in the game, in the end, is the prize no matter what the outcome because you participated. But like i said, i am no expert on trusting or opening up. But i do know with the right person there are no games there are no risks, there is no pain because you fit. so even when the games come and you take risks and there is pain you look right past it to the end game and else falls away.
Not quite sure that is what you were looking for as a response but it is what came to mind.
Vulnerability is a part of living, it’s one of those key things that make us who we are. At the same time it’s both a strength and a weakness. It can cloud our judgement, but in the same moment it can show us something we never knew about ourselves. It can give others a deeper look into who we are. There’s also people who we should show our vulnerabilities with, and those we shouldn’t. The hard part is knowing who those people are, some will try to comfort you, while others would exploit.
Then there’s the deeper issue of trust that comes with vulnerability…
