Can I ask you whether these relationship are satisfactory? Because it seems they are. I don’t mind if they are few. I’m not looking for a million of friends as the song says. What I’m worried about is that I screw up the good I have because of my insecurities.
Do you also look at for clues to see whether you are being welcome, even more when the friendship is becoming deeper? That when I give myself the credit to look for having doubts in regards. Other occasions I neither wonder my mind about if I can be accepted or not. I self eliminate.
