    I can imagine it going that way, too. It really depends on the person. It’s odd…we seem to have built this culture around distrust and winning at any cost and it feels good at first glance. Once you dig deeper, though, the whole thing is just ugly. If I lost my husband, I’d voluntarily choose to be alone. I’m not willing to have my heart torn out and having it used to beat me within an inch of my life. >_<

      Yea the lack of confidence is not without reason for sure. It’s like the “fake-it-till-you-make-it” idea which in practice only works when the feeling of insecurity is overstepping. The confidence boost just snaps me out of that headspace which is nice, and every now n then I still say something goofy but iddiswuddidis
