Letting someone know …

Why do we resist telling people that we like / love them ?

Is it because they might be scared ..?
Shocked and unaccepting ?
Afraid of not receiving a positive response ?
Maybe they don’t know you well ?

Is it because you are not sure how they take it and you might be publicly humiliated ?

I keep some feelings to myself because I would rather, if they are reciprocated, them bloom when ready. But I also wait too long and lose people I think. I dont read signals very well because I've been lied to often. I need someone to tell me how they feel. I need patience.

True .. no one wants to be hurt , real feelings do count @RebelFox

@scorpiolovedeep When its real and you can let yourself go with someone, the intensity is soul quenching. I wouldnt settle for anything less at this point?

It’s easy to intensify , but more is required to hold it together , perhaps a bigger common goal shedding the egos @RebelFox

@scorpiolovedeep mmmmm yes lets take off these egos

Ego , attitude , ignorance and anger and lack of common thinking / activities destroys relationships @RebelFox
