de·ni·al
diˈnīəl/
noun
the action of declaring something to be untrue.
Well, that's the definition of "denial".
You know why I wrote this post? Recently I felt that I often get myself into a denial stage.
Like, I just got a short haircut, then I denied that I miss my long hair, I denied that I love it long. Plus people around me tell that my new hair is better cause I look fresh in it.
That's just a simple instance.
What I wanna talk about is, I feel that I often denied something in order to put a distance from people, I don't want them to know what I really feel. I don't know why. Like, I used to like that one guy, but I kept it myself, when people were asking about what I feel, I usually said no I didn't like him.
In my humble opinion, sometimes denial can protect yourself from something you don't want it to be happened in the future. But, it can also be your boomerang, it attacks you and you know it will.
