A real friend can’t use your openness to attack or run you down… Hell no to unfriendly friends ?????

This is true, and there was a time I also had regret, but right now I’m at peace cos I was real in this fake world

I really regret

Live and learn. And trust your gut.

I’ll continue to remain open because that’s who I am. I may get hurt from time to time, but it’s experience. It’s life. It’s real. One cannot gain wisdom without truth and experience. Hiding the real me from everyone out of fear that they will hurt me is no way to live. I’ll just keep being me, living my life. It’s not that they don’t deserve to know me, it’s that I deserve to be happy being the real me. 😉

Unfortunately I open up to all the wrong people, always fucking myself.

I agree with u and u should forgive ur self for being blind enough not to see a true colour of those ppl b4 u go further with em

Agree wholeheartedly!

Opening up is also a healing process for yourself. You can’t control the thoughts, feelings and actions of the person you have chosen to open up to. #OpennessEmpowersYouNotHim

Absolutely. Not the men in my life, the woman, who just judge and fake friend you. Then talk behind you. Assholes

Hello, i am Russ Lutkin, I’m a soldier from United State of America, I need honest and caring woman for a serious relationship. Add me

This is a victim mentality. Everything and everyone is what you wanted at some point in life.

Hah keep things close to your heart and keep things closed. Until you feel like you can be open. There are a lot of dumb asses out there and only a few good ones honestly that deserve you . ))

I read this four times , perhaps more and though I can relate and agree to its content , showing whom I am inside, gives me no regrets . That he didn’t deserve to know me like that, is his problem not mine. His loss not mine. How beautiful it is to show someone that they are important to you. How beautiful is to be magical and show greatness to someone that inspires you to be. I don’t regret it but lament that he didn’t value it for its worth. Moving forward

me… i’m not a huge fan of opening up to people anymore. it’s not always a good and/or easy thing to (not) do, but i don’t.

True they didn’t but now they lost it so no worries. And now out of that we got a wonderful person in our lives now

There were too many to name who never deserved to know those parts of me. It’s no longer the case now though, all you need is 1 or 2 really good friends and a good man (or significant other) by your side. It’s quality, not quantity that makes a world of difference.

I gave EVERYTHING to two husbands, they both cheated and left. First was after 16 years and the last one was last year after 8 years. I can no longer love or trust. I am disabled and can’t even pay the utility bills to survive. I just want to survive!

I feel just the same I wish I’d never been fooled by Hamza! It was only ever about money to him what disturbs me is how convinced I was he was a true person when he was nothing but a lier & a cheat! Il never make that mistake again!

Never regret! Every heart break and disappointment teaches you something. Learn the lesson and drive on.

Don’t live life with regrets…you will never know if people deserve your heart if you don’t take a chance! 🙂

Real person will not use ur openness, ur trust of showing him/her d real you, against u…

I don’t regret it. I’m a person that loves building a connection and hate small talk. So no matter who you are, I will always be an open book. One thing is for sure, you will remain unforgettable being open and real! Don’t change! A part of you will always be stuck with them because open, real and raw people do not come around often. It’s truly, their loss!

One main reason y I don’t need a relationship I refuse to let someone know me that way again… I’m guarded now I will never b hurt again

While I agree with this statement; I also disagree. Opening up to my husband and letting him know ME – all my flaws and faults, what I have done and shouldn’t have done and most of all my thoughts, feelings and dreams. There is no better form of honesty than baring your soul to the person that can absolutely destroy you but instead only loves you and walks by your side hand in hand
