I feel like I laugh too much, but thats probably because I find things funny that other people would think are stupid. I once saw a sign that said "please don't write on this" and right next to it, someone wrote "ok" and I still laugh about that to this day. Ok, now I feel insecure about the fact that I laugh too much.
I think you think too much. 😉😊1 -
I think that's normal enough, you're right not to trust anyone. But as long as you do give some people a chance to say a few words...(I think).My personal insecurity is the belief that no one likes me so I can be slow to warm up to people or to trust them. I imagine this probably makes me seem standoffish at times but really I just want you to be my friend OK?
I believe in feeling. I believe we get a good feeling around some people, and no feeling around some other people.
Everyone gets a chance 😊 I get what you mean r.e the vibe thing.1 -

Insecurity is like a spectrum. We’re all on it somewhere... nobody is content, truly...that is the human condition (imo). Different people will have different Defense mechanisms, this is so well observed in psychology and it’s amazing once you start to see it everyday life. The most common ones being displacement and projection... I might actually be doing that latter one with this post. I’m pretty sure. Fascinating!6 -
This came across my Reddit feed - maybe someone may need to read it 🤷♂️ I found it a bit inspirational- well as inspirational as one can find these things

When people are nice to me I attribute it to their kindness and not to me being likable in any way. Mostly I think people tolerate me because they’re good people.4 -

Always filter their photos.
Can’t admit another person of the same gender is attractive.
Overly PC about everything.
So many women know this that now you see women gushing over each other instead. In some situations it’s clear that the compliments are only intended to make themselves look secure when they aren’t really.
i freely compliment other women bc it’s easy for me to see how they are pretty or what they got that’s special/cool even if they can’t and idgaf if other people think i’m being insincere as long as she gets to hear the compliment
also imo women gushing over each other like drunk-bar-bathroom-style “omg!!! i love your dress!!!” and “u have the most gorgeous hair ever i am soooooo jealous” is like the best to me
but tbh i’m super insecure so maybe it is a sign of insecurity idk
I like to compliment other people, men and women, when I notice something I like or admire. I like compliments, so I figure other people may too.
And if I think it and don't say it, I sometimes regret it and wish I had. It's like a wasted nice gesture.
I've learned to take a compliment too, I used to feel embarrassed or like they were insincere, but now I just take them literally, whether true or not.4 -

Hi kettle, I’m the pot. I mean. I recognize it because i do it too. Not always. I feel ok a lot of the time nowadays, but sometimes. I used to be kind of crippled by it though.
Also, I’ve gotten pretty good at compensating. I can walk tall and strut even when I feel like *kitten* because I’m particular about who I share my pain with.2 -

LOL!!!! I like your humor!1 -
I have one I'm guilty of. Asking permission and/or asking if it's ok when a plan changes. And I mean like every step of that change too.3

Baseball hat. Regretfully it's necessary in the sun but has become a relex to grab on way out the door. Trying to break that habit.1
