By fear, by anxiety, by all of the things that stress me out in social atmospheres. At least now, I am confident enough in who I am and my body that I really only have the small talk/social skills to work on. <br /><br /><br />Basically, I need to grow some ovaries and say hi. :)Leila | SnarkySasshttp://snarkysass.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868365931589112932.post-19131087635480470952014-02-16T02:14:39.266-05:002014-02-16T02:14:39.266-05:00It is always hard to not be in control.

While that may make you sad, you can always be proud that you did the best you can. Its much better, at least IMO to do that then be stuck in indecision and not even try because of fear.Amkoshnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868365931589112932.post-71771914475309838972014-02-16T02:10:57.832-05:002014-02-16T02:10:57.832-05:00If you and your partner are ok with it, no one els...If you and your partner are ok with it, no one else matters. A few of my friends have partners like you do. One actually ended in marriage and a kid now, so what is one way may not always be one way, but that sort of thing is what makes life... entertaining.Amkoshnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868365931589112932.post-13449322880012122672014-02-15T13:30:15.795-05:002014-02-15T13:30:15.795-05:00Asking this particular person out has definitely p...Asking this particular person out has definitely put me in my place. Usually I am very impulsive and just go for what I want and he has made it clear the ball is in his court now. I just don't want to fall away from something/someone I enjoy and its bothering me.Leila | SnarkySasshttp://snarkysass.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868365931589112932.post-47618786690390744862014-02-15T13:08:56.903-05:002014-02-15T13:08:56.903-05:00I mentioned that they can heighten a connection.

He and I both acknowledge that past our friendship and our sex, we want nothing from each other. There is kissing and intimacy but no deep set psychological feelings that bubble to the surface or anything.Leila | SnarkySasshttp://snarkysass.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868365931589112932.post-64610148904279173612014-02-15T03:39:06.919-05:002014-02-15T03:39:06.919-05:00With respect to #3, Sex is supposed to be able to ...With respect to #3, Sex is supposed to be able to form connections through hormones that are released both during and after the act. I know personally that after I feel more close to my partner. However, I also have a problem. I have not been able to complete the act unless I have feelings for my partner. The few gals I have been with that I didn't have feelings with didn't end well. So I'm not really able to say from personal experience whether the act actually can form feelings with someone when they aren't there before.Amkoshnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868365931589112932.post-63744772207663524982014-02-15T02:41:09.581-05:002014-02-15T02:41:09.581-05:00I can definitely understand being shy around the o...I can definitely understand being shy around the opposite sex, especially in the romantic context. I do think you can be introvert and not be shy. Sometimes things aren't that simple. However, I believe strongly that if you want to do something, you can. So my advice is to just do it. While its difficult, especially the whole anticipation, fear of the anticipation, fear of rejection, etc. But none of that will help you. To get around it, you need to just believe that you can. Tell yourself that you are awesome, and you can do anything you want. And you know what, you *are* awesome, and you *can* do anything. <br /><br />Of course, be careful, some people are dangerous, and you need to use your instincts to avoid putting yourself in danger, but that sort of thing is different than being afraid of asking. <br /><br />And while I agree with @Kharendos's comment about trust, I'd say its trust in fate or god, or whatever you believe - The point is you don't have any control, and you need to accept that. And for some people that's real hard.Amkoshnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868365931589112932.post-81356470091629577582014-02-13T15:00:40.913-05:002014-02-13T15:00:40.913-05:00This might be my favourite blog post ever.

I think it's because like myself, I'm starting to learn to accept myself as I am; not what others think of me. That in itself is empowering. <br /><br />I'm still trying to be more open about myself, so I'm not paralyzed by the little fears that we all have sometimes. I admit, I'm still not fully happy with my body, but I do see the positives. <br /><br />I just need to embrace myself more -as I am-, not what others should think I should be. As always, I'm still a work in progress.<br /><br />And as I've said before, that photo of you is very tastefully well done, and it captures you very well.Kharendosnoreply@blogger.com
