Don't worry, balance will come with experience and time. You buy a new pair of boots, you have to wear them out awhile before they feel comfortable.

You just need to team up with someone who thinks on your level and allow them to help you solve difficult issues and fill in the gaps of uncertainty. So if you are someone who has difficulty judging certain types of suspicious people or seemingly dangerous situations or just how to be with women, and what to expect from them as well as what to expect from yourself, you would have another set of eyes who would be able to help you assess the risks, the benefits and make accurate determinations on where to draw the line.

Some people are naturally careful and paranoid, and are very good at spotting risks. But if they don't know where to draw the line, then having such a powerful ability can easily become a severe handicap.

So someone like that just needs to team up with a person who is actually good at assessing significance, and then you can both untangle the knots together as a team.

But you need the foresight to understand the value of having such a team.

Everyone needs someone they can trust to give an impartial determination. But you can't really get that from employees or other angle relationships such as romantic or respect relationships because they are always going to have a conflict with their attraction or their respect for you.

For example, you can't ask someone's advice if you have to worry about them losing respect for you as a friend or losing attraction for you as a romantic interest. You need someone who's interest and intent is just to form a team to solve the riddles of life, and so they will be just as interested in doing that as you are.

So it would need to be someone who is interested in setting up that kind of relationship from the start, where being part of a team is their only motivation.

I truly know deep down inside that I am alone.

I'm okay with it

welcome back caesar.

It's not you. You are asleep. Your spirit was free. Moving from body, to the next body. Free. Free for a moment. Then it was captured by an invader force, bent on turning you to the darkest way, you've been implanted with a push-pull mechanism that keeps you fearful of authority and destructive. We are in the middle of a battle that's a trillion years in the making and it's bigger than the both of us!
