Yeah, that's also where I ran into issues, I'm quite reserved socially but with the right people and the right vibe I can come alive. In my personal life I'm known for my dinner parties and other sort of old fashion gatherings, but those spaces are very curated by me so I'm much more relaxed. Same goes for compassion and all those other complex emotions, I can be uncomfortably devoid of them but then I can also flip a switch and be all over it.
