every human has to feel like they belong to a tribe, huh. one person is never enough to fix someone…
ah, so that's the true shape of my trauma, huh… that would explain many things
type of person who is easily confident about themselves in 1:1 interactions and before a wider audience, but who is more vulnerable in a group setting (me)
(the flipside of the vulnerability is when it goes really well it tends to get to my head, y'know. i like having friends)
i wonder, is there a person who's the opposite? do some people find fitting in with a group really easy but find one-to-one interactions incredibly anxiety-inducing, due to some different configuration of traumas?
@hikari yes hi hello 
@hikari 'fix' is a false concept
@whitequark certainly, it was just a succinct way to get across what i meant
@whitequark if i were to phrase it as “finding just one person who deeply understands you is not enough to heal” would that be less objectionable? it's closer to what i meant
