I choose to show my vulnerability to a person when I feel that it can be shown to that particular person. But with everyone else I choose to keep my guards up.

Infact in the first few meetings my guards are up. I try to give a small picture of myself in those meetings and see for the response. Depending on the response I take the decision.

Fair enough. But remember, your current attitude is because of your past experiences. Had your past experiences been a little more pleasant and safe and sound you would have been more open with everyone.

But we can not let our past dictate our present. We have to uncondition ourselves, let go of the bondages. And this is very difficult. But it must be done to live more freely and joyfully :)

True. But we got to learn something from our past. :-p

I agree it's a defence mechanism but sometimes I feel it's necessary for me.
