What makes you feel safe enough to let your guard down around someone?

My aim on GAG is to decode relationship dynamics and help you stop wasting time on walking red flags 😏

I let my guard down when someone is consistent, not just lovebombing for a week. They keep my secrets, don’t judge my flaws, and communicate instead of ghosting. I feel safe when I’m not punished for being vulnerable, and my emotions aren’t used against me later. That’s when the walls start to fall.

For me, it’s mostly my intuition. My intuition has never been wrong… I feel safe around someone when my gut tells me I can trust them, when their energy feels genuine, and when I don’t have to question their intentions or overthink how they feel about me…I just feel at peace being myself around them…because at the end I trust myself and my judgement..

[tiredpanda]

I agree! I wouldn't dismiss intuition either. More often than not, our gut feelings turn out to be right

[ElenaLena]

You know.. its scary for me how I am right all the time depending on that.. my mom says its a gift 😄
Some of my friends say I am a psychic 😄

[tiredpanda]

Hahaha, maybe you do have a sixth sense! 😂 But seriously, I think sometimes we pick up on little things without even consciously realizing it

[tiredpanda]

And sometimes it can be a little creepy lol

[ElenaLena]

You reminded me of this 😄

[tiredpanda]

I don't exactly guard myself... enough distance and awareness is what I prefer

a constant guard is tiring... I rather take the hit earlier and then I'll know much better and sooner, but as I said... awareness... I'll see the hit coming so, good luck with that... lmao

[FreyaRed]

You don't need a guard if you keep distance. Distance is the best armor.

A long period of time establishing trust and knowing there will be no judgement from them

[tiredpanda]

For sure.

When someone is patient with me…understands me…and makes me feel comfortable just being myself. I think it’s the little things too like being consistent, listening, and making me feel like I can open up without worrying about being judged.

[Nikki1989]

I can do it all too easily. I am self-censoring myself constantly, so I can't help you there.
