Are the people you deal with on a daily basis going to read this? I do believe this medium allows us to be truthful, painfully truthful.. And why is it that people always try to deflect such questions?

As for myself, The part that I hide the most is the fact that Im very emotional. I keep that supressed and down in the wayside. I think that showing too many emotions makes you look weak and I HATE looking weak to others.

Being Judgmental. I am almost never engaged with another person without taking inventory of their flaws, their motivations, and their errors. But where once I took these judgments seriously and measured a person against them, now they are merely private entertainment, just catty dish going on in my head for my own amusement. But I never share these thoughts with the subjects of them or with others. I hide that part of me for the most basic of reasons - so I don't drive away my loved ones and friends and end up alone.

I'm just me. I believe to be transparent before God and man, so that makes me very very comfortable and not vulnerable. Let's see, i gotta think real hard whether I hide anything from others, hmmmmm, ya! my hurts. I never reveal how hurt I am coz I always look at it this way that I am anyway hurt so y hurt others by displaying my feelings unless the person is really, really close to me, so the person is careful not to step on my toe again.
And my weakness is I cannot and will not reveal my emotions in public, and I guess somewhere deep down I am very hard. I can feel for others but not for myself, sort of with time I became numb to my own hurts. So its real hard for people to see me that way. Some even misunderstand me to b proud, selfcentered, etc,etc.I think thats about it. Ya!

I used to do the same thing, till I figured out that Being afraid to show your emotions is a sign of weakness.
Not being afraid to show your emotions is a sign of strength.
Now I cry when ever I feel sad.
I have had some very large men come to me and say that they had never met another man with a full range of emotions who was not afraid to show it. Invariably they ask me how I did it. I tell they first you need to overcome the fear.
Love and blessings Don

That I worry alot and inside seem to be a bit of a nervous wreck. Quite often people say to me 'wow, you are so calm and controlled about this....". I don't cry, shout or even really express my worries and I have learned to hide the physical signs. Inside i'm hiding in a corner trembling. However it is useful and gets me through many difficult situations.

I and probably many others would never answer this completely truthfully. The part of us that we keep hidden is hidden for a reason. It's most likely some sort of personal perceived weakness. Why write that down for everyone to see? It just doesn't seem prudent.

im never truly honest with anyone, i would hate being that vulnerable. i always resort to being the funny one otherwise im scared people wont like me... i never tell anyone what i really want from them, im obsessed with whether someone likes me or not, i dont want to appear stupid etc.... i pretend to be something/ someone im not just to be liked... i hate awkward silences and feet, and i always say stuff i dont mean- i never let on that i dread public humiliation and i always think someone is watching me...
im not crazy.

I am a very Loving Person, but I do not like to show that side, because sometimes you get hurt.

I am unwilling to admit that it would be really great if I fell in love. I pretend quite convincingly that I don't need anyone.

I am not trying to hide it. Trying to get rid of it is more correct.
The ego.
