Afraid of me

[breakinglight11]

Tonight I was told, not for the first time, that people are afraid of me. Unsure of what to make of this, I wrote in my Honesty Box on Facebook asking if anyone found this to be true. Not ten minutes later, I recieved this response:

"jesus phoebe. you're gorgeous, smart, judgmental, and don't need anything. any minute you're going to decide that i'm worthless. i'm terrified of you."

I... know even less what to think.

Well, Phoebe, I will provide you with an honest response sans anonymity. I also think you're gorgeous, smart, and judgmental. I'm not so sure about the "don't need anything" part, because I think everyone needs something. And I *might* be afraid of you if I thought you were so wanton and cruel as to decide that I'm worthless on a whim. But I don't think you'll do that, because I respect you and trust you. So I don't think this person knows you well enough, though I can see why those with fearful personalities might find you to be someone worth fearing.
