    Yes. Just because you are willing to do something, doesn’t mean you are necessarily comfortable with it.

      Agreed. We have to leave our comfort zone to grow and we should all be trying to grow. I don’t like leaving my comfort zone, but I recognize the necessity and pursue it.

    Yeah of course.

    I hate going out shopping or socialising. I don’t mind sitting on a terrace having a few beers and tapa.

    I hate when I have to speak to people I don’t know. My girlfriend is a chatterbox and when she’s tipsy she’ll talk to anyone.

    I’m just sat there chewing my knees hoping it’ll all end soon.

    Conversely, she doesn’t like visiting my parents as they live, well you go to the middle of nowhere and then a bit further.

    She grew up in a city so she cannae handle the silence.

    They say opposites attract…

    Is it so hard to believe that people would do something with little regard to comfort?

      no, I don’t really believe this anyways, it just felt like the kind of oversimplified model of what words mean; which tends to go on showerthoughts.

        Things tend to be complicated sometimes, but it’s okay bud…

        You will find the comfort in what you like…
