And I can personally know where certain things stem from and where the patterns come from and things like that, but it's just crazy to talk about it with a male friend especially. And to just realize that, wow, that is really something that pulls me back from really diving in with someone even if I am close to them in an emotional, more friendship way or whatever

Oh, I love this and I love your surprise little laugh at the end. It's surprising to be that vulnerable sometimes. I loved it and I really love the image that you use as, like, the vein and the nerve and the wound. I've been listening to a lot of podcasts with this with this man called gabor Mate and he talks a lot about trauma and trauma being the wound that we experience from events. And, yeah, it's just made me think of that

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond and listen to what I wrote. It definitely came from a vulnerable place, and the laugh at the end was for sure out of slight woe. Did I just write that and say that out loud? But also, like, this sense of relief, like, wow, that is really how I feel. And it's okay. Feeling like vulnerability is this sort of wound that you only can heal with time

But first of all, is this bridge strong enough to hold me? Am I going to fall off this bridge? And even if I do cross the bridge and I embrace her, is she going to understand why I am embracing her? Is she going to accept the hug? I know it sounds kind of strange, but I just have that image in my head
