Rec'd on 🔐 What quality do you like most about yourself?

everyone knows i love putting myself in others shoes with a touch of nuance. ties into my aversion to anger/control over my outward display of negative emotion. being a fast learner is also kind of nice.

in touch w emotions

im lucky to have grown up in a household where my family talked about emotions openly and I was never made to feel bad for what I felt👍🏻that being said I was an extremely emotional child and picked up on peoples energies very easily from a young age which was not bad! I've always been aware of what I'm feeling and I never suppress anything... yet a lot of people in my life have not been "emotional" and I was so confused why people weren't like me ... emotions make us human and its kind the whole point of living... anger, sadness, fear, joy, gratitude, etc etc etc and to lean into emotions and feeeeellllll is really important!! I'm extremely personable and empathetic (to a fault sometimes) and a lot of people seem to randomly come to me with their deepest darkest secrets 😅but its because they trust me and no I have no judgement 💕old relationships did not work out for me due to their lack of emotional intelligence. i think for me to fully thrive I need my emotions to be understood and even better for the people in my life to embrace their emotions<3 I def know its not easy for everyone.. but I loveeee emotionssss

Being Introvirtuous:

It’s always fun to learn things about yourself later than you’d think you would. I’ve always been seen as super charismatic & outgoing & extroverted but deep down that stuff killed me, drained me. But I was good at it! And so even when I’d explain that it exhausted me I’d be met with a “There’s no way, it seems natural.” I love alone time, I love being with myself, I love introspection & self-investigations. And it turns out that there is a word for that: Introvirtuous. After spending most of my life in leadership roles, being put at the forefront of groups + dynamics, having to accept the “dad” title in the friend group it makes sense. There’s a way for me to be introverted and still accept that when it’s necessary, I will step up to be the guy at the front. And then I’ll go home and cry. But damn it, that performance while I’m at the front??? Incredible.
