Is it normal to feel bad opening up to people?

I Just feel foolish every time I do open up, when I show just how vulnerable I can be, just how confused I can be. Its like when I am feeling like I am going to cry in front of people who are friends or family, I run off to a room I can lock the door and cry. I Dislike crying in front of others, even when my grandpa passed away I remained strong, but cried the next day in front of a friend, I felt pathetic.

I Am a guy btw.

It just I never really ever feel better when I open up. I Will start thinking how stupid it was and get angry about it because I can't do that, I have always seen myself as a warrior. A Warrior has to be stronger than that. Well, I do at least.

is it normal to be that screwed up?

    As you may have noticed, it certainly didn't do me any good to open up on here and let folks know my story.
    Many chose to call me a liar, others chose to attack me (and my wife, who has said not one unkind word to anyone, by the way) and generally show the ugliest part of themselves to the IIN members.
    Yeah, I can understand your pain, though it's a lot easier to bear when it is unknown strangers, rather than friends and family who choose to inflict it, only because one chooses to be open.
    So, buck up friend, and fuck em all.

      I feel ya, matey! We sailors should just listen to the sound of our penises sliding in and out of our wives, who are 42 years our juniors, vaginas.

      The familiar squelching and sliding sound. *smoosh, slech, splooge, squish, splukaspluka, slap, slap, slap*

      And the waves rocking our boats, 42 years our seniors. *whoooooosh* *whoosh* *sprussshh*
