Comment on Where is the line between being yourself and trying to change?

You are “being yourself” as long as what you do is what you want to do.
If you want to start flirting because you think you’d feel better, then it’s you being yourself.
If you do it because you think peers/society/whoever wants you to be like that, you’re not being yourself.

I think, I’m somewhere in the middle of all that. I’m fine with flirting, I’m more or less indifferent about it. But if it wasn’t as important as people say it is, I don’t think I would do it, just to be safe.

Safe from what?
And who says it’s important?
Communication is important, but how you do that is always going to vary. “Flirting” is just one way to communicate.

Safe from making someone uncomfortable?
According to folks over at my previous posts. (Though they also emphasised communication)
