Forming connections with others is only possible through honest communication. People rarely fully communicate their honest selves, instead hiding their true thoughts, beliefs and intentions out of fear of making themselves vulnerable.

Extending trust is a manifestation of personal courage. You show that are willing to deal with any ramifications that may occur from allowing another person to harm you as a result of you opening yourself up. These are the situations which can make vulnerability appear as an attractive trait.

However, showing vulnerability in a positive sense is NOT vomiting emotions and/or seeking sympathy from a person. It’s not showing up on someone’s doorstep and crying for them to take you back. It’s not acting like someone or something means everything to you and you will die without the person or thing in your life. Actively seeking pity or pleading in anyway is not attractive.
