As a guy, I never really felt comfortable saying those things to anyone irl.

Despite being pretty darn comfortable as a who I am, a man who doesn't always present as masculine all the time, I can say with certainty that I absolutely suck at sharing my emotions.

Yeah I'll vent and talk about some things with my mother, but otherwise I tend to mostly keep my emotions to myself if possible. I'm positive that it's a combination of my autism and that I feel as though others shouldn't get involved with them because they're my emotions and others shouldn't have to deal with them with/for me.

Edit:

It also doesn't help that I'm more of an introvert, too. Also makes it harder for me to open up in general, IRL.
