Unspoken Truths

Lets be honest for a moment. Why is it that we as females feel the need to deny certain feelings, even to our friends! For instance if you are speaking about a guy from your past and you say you're over him and then continue to have a 20 min conversation about him. It is clear you are not over him. For the most part your friends will let it rock and engage in the conversation with you. But you both know the truth, you are not over him or the situation. I don't know whether it is a fear of being totally open about your feelings or a fear that people i.e. your friends will judge you on your feelings. But if they are your real friends they would never judge. I think it is about time women start being honest about how they feel, what they want and what the need.Men are not excluded either. I always go by the notion that when someone tells you something you should believe them, which is what men go by for the most part. Women are the complex individuals who continue to go by the notion that actions speak louder than words. I won't lie sometimes that is true and can help to read people but at times it can back fire and contradict what the person said and actually meant. If everyone stop trying to hide how they truly feel relationships and life would be a lot easier.
