Can you say there is someone who knows you? Really knows you. The inner you, the darkest parts of you, the fragility of you? If you do not protect yourself, will anyone else do it? Does anyone want to? Have they ever?
No one has ever known me. I must protect myself because there is no one else to do so. Never has been.

you have touched upon a a question that haunts me - as I assume many others as well. "Does anyone really know me, the real fragile me behind the iron mask?" The next quesion that I have yet to answer though is "Should I allow others to see fractions of who I really am or wait for them to show interest in peeking behind the mask? and if I don't reveal parts of myself, can I really blame others for not knowing or undestanding the real me?"
i just found this today ... am so far behind in email. But i had to respond.
i lived most of my life thinking no one would every really know me. The real deep inside me. i have to say that going on 7 years with Sir now that someone does know and honestly understand me.
i just turned 51 so this didnt come over night for me ... but i think that for everyone that time comes ... we just have to have our eyes and heart open to it.
Otherwise ...
Well i dont want to think if i had not taken one more chance on this game table we call life.
