I just read an article in SELF that finally described me perfectly! I always said I was the most optimistic pessimist, but it turns out I'm a "defensive pessimist". I worry as a way to prevent myself from feeling deeper emotions. In any case I worry because I think it will prepare me for any situation. The only thing this worry accomplishes

I remember when you snapped this pic. I love how the guy is starting to take a step forward; it almost looks like he's posing for you.

And don't worry, we all still love ya whether you are an optimistic pessimist or a defensive pessimist.
