Dangling the Carrot

When it comes to relationships, I admit I'm bad. My deep-seated insecurities get the better of me. I read things that aren't there. I second guess myself and talk myself out of something that is probably beneficial. I jump through hoops that don't exist. I run an obstacle course that is only real in my mind.

And I end up emotionally exhausted.

It makes me wonder if anyone else does the same thing. And maybe that's why we all seem to be so bad at communicating. We dance this dance of fear of the unknown when it would just be easier to ask, to be honest, and to get it all out in the open.

But maybe.... that takes some of the fun out of it.
