Reveal An Uncomfortable Truth About Yourself

hey...

I will never reveal the "truth' about who and what I am to anyone, regardless of who they are or who they think they are.
 
UNCOMFORTABLE Truth

Most introspective truth is uncomfortable. Wish I was different. I silently crush on sensuous beautiful women who cross the path of my life.
 
I'm quite inconvenient and I love the people who appreciate that
I've not found this to be true.

Also: While I am not as some have said, lazy, I do give in to things like fatigue, pain, discomfort and temptation far too often. Taking it easy for a day is normal. Taking it easy for 3 weeks is a kind of insanity.
 
When I have too much down time I start overthinking things and get myself worked up into a funk over nothing at all

I also convince myself, quite frequently, that I’m probably more of an annoyance than anything else and I shouldn’t reach out first 🙈

^Also guilty of both these things.

Same here too :cautious:
I can slip into overthinking if I’m stressed or care too much. It adds to my insomnia which is the last thing I need. So I’ve been actively working at recognizing that pattern and shutting it down if it’s not serving a beneficial purpose.

We all have our less than stellar days, but we’re also a lot more than our worst qualities and thoughts. From everything I know about each of you @ShyNaughtyGirl @Rainshine @cheekygirl75, you’re really lovely humans who add a lot more humor and joy to Lit (and likely your offline worlds) than anything else. So whatever you’re questioning, don’t; just go for it. Anyone and anything you invest your time into is fortunate.
 
In a similar vein to others above, I don't often reach out first because I don't really have much to offer. When I do reach out, I mostly fail to get those connections beyond the nice but vague "we chat sometimes" level.

I would like to have healthy friendships here, but it rarely happens as I forever struggle with balancing my introvert needs for solitary time, the desire to have friends (who deserve more from me), and the intense demands of life 'behind the scenes'. Oh, and add in my deep trust issues. It really isn't conducive to creating friendships!

I refuse, however, to apologise for any of this, just because it's uncomfortable. I'd rather be labelled as shallow/cold/selfish/*fill in whatever word you like* than tying myself in knots trying to please other people.
 
My inability to quit playing devil's advocate will almost definitely leave me with no friends one day.
