I don't think it's so dumb, Hikka. It'd be nice if one could just be open and honest to everyone all of the time but it's just not always simply about courage.
P.S.: For all of you who may have read this post before, yes, I clipped it drastically cuz it was too personal and I didn't wanna inundate anyone with my dyko-babble. ;-)
And I get nervous whenever I see my feelings out on the web, especially on this forum.
