I totally agree with Unit. Its important to be strong when you need to stand up for yourself and what you believe in, and vulnerable when its time to open up to the person you care about. Either extreme can seem unfavorable to the opposite sex.
I myself have been guilty of being unable to open up my emotions when I wanted to, I was just too scared from being hurt before: not that I blamed men, but I was afraid. Sometimes it just takes time to heal the wounds of the heart, and its not a good idea to rush into something new, because as it was said in another thread...its a BAD idea to wear your heart on your sleeve. Its scared me off before, and I too have scared off others by opening up too fast.
But we're all human, and we all eventually find the ones that love us enough to forgive us for all our faults...I certainly have enough!!
