Going all in and getting hurt
Am I going about this the wrong way? As someone who has kept people at arms length and constantly has a wall up, I decided to jump back into OLD but this time, with the intention of throwing myself all-in and allowing myself to feel and experience what could be something real.
I met someone and we had a great connection very early on. I blew it. I didn’t have the emotional maturity to support him when he was hurting and now, he’s withdrawn from me completely.
I’m losing sleep over this because I’m still emotionally entangled. From the way this has gone, I don’t think going into this bare was a good idea. How am I suppose to protect myself yet stay open at the same time?
