What if they think I’m a prude?
I feel bad for saying no… Maybe I’m just being too sensitive.
Am I being rude by rejecting the meet up?
I’m not ready, but what if she gets angry with me?
What if she doesn’t want to hang out again...
It is normal to experience thoughts like the ones above.
However, you have to remember that your feelings are valid, and it is ok to state how you feel clearly, and establish boundaries that are comfortable and safe for you.
It may not always be easy, do not let others invalidate or explain how you feel!
