i just wrote a whole post about relationships that i can't post because i'm not following it. Sigh.

The gist? My feelings are mine, and while they're inspired by the other person, they don't depend on them. I try, and mostly succeed, at not being embarrassed by how I feel about others. Because, again, my feelings are just that: mine.

But still, I've realized that I'm not as forthcoming as I thought I was, depending on the situation. Not that I'm embarrassed--it's just that... sometimes where you're at is so nice, you don't want to rock the boat. Yet.
