I want to be vulnerable

vul·ner·a·bil·i·ty

noun

1. the quality or state of being exposed to the possibility of being attacked or harmed, either physically or emotionally.

Why can’t I be vulnerable?! 

I want to be vulnerable. But I find it SO hard. I think it would improve my relationships with others, especially with the ones I care most about. 

I tend to be less vulnerable with a significant other or good friend more so than a stranger. Why is that? I think answers to that could be that I am scared I will lose that person if I am too open. If I say something that the other doesn’t agree with, like or want to hear…that that could ruin and end the relationship. 

That is a legitimate fear for sure but it doesn’t mean that I still shouldn’t be vulnerable because after all, I am ME and if that person doesn’t stick around for me being me, then surely it wouldn’t last anyway and that person isn't worth my time.

I want to be vulnerable.
