You've got the reason right but the cause in my personal situation comes from school. I was a class clown until I hit 6th grade, it's like I grew a target on my back over summer. Now I can't really open up to a person the way I'd like to because I'm unable to trust someone too soon.

I absolutely agree, that's why I like hangin around this place so much. I love conversation but if you're not one of only about 8 people(including my girlfriend, who's the only person I've ever instantly connected with), I literally can't talk to you as far as having a decent conversation is concerned. It's extremely frustrating.

I actually might've made a slight misjudgment, I think I'd feel comfortable around some of the folks here even more so than most people in my personal life.
