So we've got one "go for it" from Sunny, who's also not an open book, and one "doesn't work" from CVA, who's open.
CVA, I'd like to hear what open looks like for you.
I think what I'm going for is being open while strong, back to my ultimate goal of emotional vulnerability combined with great strength. I'd like to feel like, "I have some fears about this ... share share share ... sharing that is scary and feels good at the same time ... I'm going to do x and y courageous thing in the face of the fear and see what happens."
Had a talk with the guy a while ago (not a Talk, just talking), during which he told me about his fears in an R (in general, not with me). He said something about them, then took a deep breath and said, "Wow, here's all my cards," and went on calmly re the fears. It was the sexiest thing I've seen in a long time.
