    I’ve learned overtime that the dark cloud is trauma, and it needs deconstruction. Open conversations are just that. Let the other person know next time:

    “Thank you for musing me the other day when we [expand] that friendly conversation. I enjoyed it, and wish we could do this again some other time you are willing to. Here is my personal card🙇‍♀️‍🐶🤲🪪”

    Deconstruction of my post traumatic social anxiety took a very long time, having been ostracized several times in my lifetimes.
    Technically still am, but I hope to fix it once I am in Luxembourg|Iceland.
    I hate to 建前.
