Of feeling vulnerable

Oct 27, 2012 18:49

I hate feeling vulnerable. I hate it.

I can be proud, but I easily let go of that pride when the bond I share with someone is worth it. I don't let that pride go between me and the people I love. I know about too many people who are too proud and end up losing those people.

But this particular feeling of vulnerability has nothing to do with pride; it ( Read more... )

I think we all hate being vulnerable. After all it's such a... helpless feeling right? And who doesn't hate feeling helpless? Like we can't control things we feel are important.

Femininity doesn't come from clothing, it comes from within. Sure you can express a form of femininity by how you move or talk or dress yourself but yeah...

I understand a bit of your feelings around this because poeple can be so very judgemental - often without even meaning to.

I've never understood this obsession with outsides. How a person look is just so irrelevant to me *chuckle* I usually can't even recognize a person's face because I've never really looked at that before. I recognize people by the way they move and talk and express themselves, but most of all by their aura. So I rarely notice if someone got an haircut. And if I met someone and someone other than that person wants me to descibe their appearance afterwards I truly don't even know (usually I can't even say if they were dark haired or blond haha (this happened to me not too long ago ( ... )

Yes, I hate feeling helpless. This is such a terrible feeling. This is part of the reason I chose to be a doctor, too, actually. :) I wanted to be able to do something for the people I care about when everything is falling apart. ...Medicine can't cure everything, though. I know this in an abstract way, but I think I'll have to remember it the hard way, too. This is quite unavoidable ( ... )

Sometimes it's easy to know things intellectually but then you have to learn them with your body/heart too >.>

It IS a bit stupid *chuckle* It's one of those things people should only do it they enjoy them - but instead society tries to force it on everyoneWell in this case aura might be the worng word *think about it* It's like... the essence of the way I register the person. So yes in a way I can also "see" it over the internet, but it's much more blurry there since I can't see their facial expression, the way their voice goes up or down in different situations or if they gesticulate a lot. *small smile ( ... )
