There are some of my fiends who have really been hurting my feelings lately in the simplest ways--by not telling me things because they are to scared of what I will think. It really hurts to think that I am someone that people feel like they can't come to.
The other night I was thinking about how I could change this image that they have of me so that they know that they can come to me whether I want to hear what I have to say or not. Because it is true! They can tell me ANYTHING! I am not easily offended and it bothers me more that they are afraid to tell me.
I thought I might talk to them alone and assure them of this but I think that might be perceived as intimidaitng. I don't know what to do.

I am who I am. I like who I am most some of the time. There are only a few people who I want to intimidate. None of them are my friends.
