Fear of getting close to people.
Whenever people try to approach me, I’d feel uncomfortable even though they have no bad intentions. They actually feel the complete opposite of what I feel, they enjoyed having me around. But yeah, I just couldn’t feel the same way.
There are people who were interested in me but in fear of the future I pushed them away. Growing up in a dysfunctional family, I always have trust issues. There are always few relatives or people who will try to ruin my life. But their main prey is actually my mom but since me and my siblings are her children so they also try to hurt us through all sort of means. Spreading bad rumours and get everyone to turn their back against us.

Our family environment affects us so much, It is sad .
Fear of letting people in and trusting them is valid. But because of this we can also miss out on some genuinely good people.
What do you think about taking small steps in trusting people ?
I think perhaps I should try do so. Maybe I should slow down instead of trying to rush things over.

Slowing down and taking your time is a nice idea . Go for it..😊
