Do you WANT to he more vulnerable or authentic with others?

I truly do. But you feel many will take advantage when you reveal flaws of yourself. BUT, many will NOT do that, and will maybe even want to open themselves more too. And they'll become closer with you if you are authentic and vulnerable. Its still hard, but its something I really wish to fulfill.

Nothing is ever 100%....there will always be those who will try to take advantage of you at any opportunity, but there will also always be those who will be there for you when you need and will come to trust you to be there for them.
Some people will fool you, and you will be hurt when you find out that they don’t have the best intentions....and some people will restore your faith in humanity just when you started to think that the whole world is messed up.
Trust has to be earned....but when you do find people that you can trust, it’s a wonderful thing. You might get hurt a few times along the way to finding them, but the journey can still be worth the effort. ❤️
