“I was married for ten years and I was closed to my husband. “.
I was seeing this amazing girl for about five months. Today, I opened up and shared vulnerability. It was terminal.
Was I wrong to open and share feeling?
Did she feel unnerve sharing vulnerability? Fuck knows.
What I know odds that by being open with her, a weight lifted from my shoulders. I can only own me and my actions.
This has dented confidence. I was trusting this process though it has not been working for me as I would hope.
Somewhat at a loss
You deserved to be with a partner you can be vulnerable with. Don’t doubt it.

You should celebrate, honestly - you opened up, put yourself out there, and trusted yourself. Doing that has saved you from what could have been many months (years?) of pain. You dodged a hell of a bullet!!!

You did something courageous and that you won’t regret in the long run. It’s only been a day, maybe she needs time to process it. A guy being open and vulnerable is a ‘new’ situation for many women. Don’t stress yourself brother, you did what was right for you. Plenty more fish.

That’s sucks real hard. It’s not fair but it’s life. Don’t change a thing. As you said a weight was lifted off your shoulders. Brother we all know the weight of heavy burden, no woman is worth carrying that so she can be comfortable
