Awkward
Reach out?
Or don't?
How that one simple question is akin to a life changing decision
Im so awkward
Socially inept
Don't want to impose
What if its unwanted?
Im unwanted?
Better not
Ill stay here
In this perfectly constructed cell
Built for their protection
And
Mine
Or don't?

I feel your anxiety. But isn't it a bit trilling? Just breath. We all have to venture out some time. lol Fia xoxo

I dont know? Not sure if it's thrilling. Harrowing maybe? I am trying to just go with it though. So far, so good.

Lived there for far too long. It’s a trap, don’t get stuck there, you may never get out and that would be tragic.
I enjoyed the spacing between lines, it gave pause to ponder your thoughts.

Yea, it really is a trap. One that I continuously fall into. Luckily i have always pulled myself out. We shall see. I'm trying. That's all any of us can do right?
Thanks for the support Mary.

I used to feel the same way, for many years. But I’ve come to believe that being awkward is the most natural human state of existence for most people. At least for the people I care to have in my life! If you’re awkward about it, only people who are meant to be in your tribe will match your vibe. If someone doesn’t like your awkward, they’re not meant to be a support for you anyway.
