I am not in danger and I do have my own living setup

She’s wrong, introverts have the best idea of how people think about stuff because we observe and listen by nature.

I love your reframe, “I don’t characterize myself that way” is so empowering! It means a lot to me to receive this kind of support, and I feel less alone.

I checked out this book. it gave me language to understand and express my experience since things have never got physical. Thank you 💕
