How much of your heart do you hold back? How far in before you let it speak? If we all seek honest, and sincere people to love us for ourselves, then why does the world feel so lonely with out you?

Yeah sometimes the questions are just that, Too much to contemplate and not enough of a feeling from your heart.



I haven't thought about that before, sooooo....ummmm....weilll.....geez exxmen this is like being called to solve quadratic equations on the black board in schoollaugh

I guess I hold back my heart until I see tangible (either verbal or physical) signs from a guy that his interest is in line with mine. Then I do not hold back at all really, but I prolly should - the :heart: bruises far too easily to be so forthcoming, I thinkflowerforyou

How much of your heart do you hold back?

I hold back a LOT.
But, my rule of thumb is, I give what I get.
If I am with someone who is not emotionally
available, I would probably hold out forever.
When my partner opens to me, however, I give
back equally.

Equality is everything.

Problem is what if the other person does the same thing? They hold back so what or who do you really know of them. It becomes a rhetorical question you know. There must come a point where we allow our self to just be who we are and come to accept that if i don't come out as being myself and my experiences, you might not ever really get to know me. Ya follow me?noway

Equality is everything, and that is why i prefer to come out with cards on the table rather than holding half the deck back.

BINGO! We have a winner! Hi Kristi! The math always adds up.

So people, don't be surprised when you don't get what you want, and don't blame the other for what you held back.

bamm! we slapped that down! Wait, my leg is shaken like Elvis. Clear the room, it's gonna be a song.

I agree. I think we have to hold back and observe the person's words and actions and only move more deeply into the matters of the heart when those actions and behaviors of the other are true to our heart

I'm not talking about not being ourselves.
I absolutely feel that is key in any relationship,
to be free enough to be yourself.
I'm all about individual freedom.

I'm referring to a heart connection...
it takes time, as it should be, no rush.
Nothing wrong with us holding back at first.
Most people do if even on a subconscious level.
Best thing is to let the heart speak when it's ready to speak.

I like lots of people, I love lots of people.
There are very few I have a heart connection with.

"Some people seem to say that we must sacrifice our ability to discriminate in decision making. Such a position would require that we exercise no discernment. There is a sense in which we are not to judge people, but we will see in this study that there is a sense in which we, as believers, are required to judge others." Anyone want to tell me what this references? :smile: This lesson i still struggle with but i do try to adhere to.
