Dear E:

I like the card analogy. After all, you don’t know what issues, and often enough grave issues other people have. So you reveal one card of yours in a self accepting way. That way you encourage the other (including a potentially romantic partner or one that is already) to reveal to you her card. When she sees it is okay to … have cards, that it is okay with you, then she will be encouraged to reveal her own.

And I am yet to meet a person that does not hold a deck of their own cards…

Please post again, anytime, E!
