Is it possible to not be vulnerable to society?

I feel as if I am not vulnerable enough to fall for society's ways. For example, if I know somethings stupid to do Im not gonna do it no matter how many are doing it just to fit in. Or another way that I lack vulnerability is if I have the chance to grow as a person, say living with roommates and here's my chance to open up and let myself go to whatever they introduce me to and not hold back, I fail. Im just like too much in myself and not vulnerable enough to let go and let myself learn new experiences and grow. Thats the downside to not being vulnerable. I feel like that is a huge problem I have when it comes to making friends and socializing without it being awkward. I think that this is going to affect me to change and grow as a person. I try to let go sometimes but it doesn't work. Its just not in me to be vulnerable. Any other advice?

  • Both of you said two right things: I have too many expectations and anxiety. Crazy.

    Nope. It sounds like the problem is that you have some anxiety issues, not that you're invulnerable to society. I suggest you talk to a therapist or psychiatrist about this.

    I don't think you would feel awkward if you were truly invulnerable to society. That feeling exists because of the expectations you have. Just be yourself regardless of what you think other people think about it.
