I  was told when I was younger that I try too hard to get people to like me. That its freaks them out and makes me out to be needy.

This stuck with me and to be honest I believe it is the cornerstone of my fears.

Am I needy?

To be honest I don’t know

I guess we all are at times.

We all want people to like us.

But do I try to hard?

No

If fact I think I’m the opposite

I hold back, I reject the hand of friendship.

I over analyse, question motives.

I don’t let people get to know me.

All because of this fear.

All because someone decided to neuter not nurture me.

Simply put I’m letting the past bite me in the ass.
