TL;DR
We need to open up, to welcome vulnerability, it's the only way to become emotionally stronger.

All social insecurities are bedded in lies, when you can single out these false premises out, and fill the void that was left with courage and ambition, your mindset changes, failures are now scars that push you forward and look cool on your visage. Then comes Maturity...
Maturity is being resilient, which means no neediness, and makes the way for authentic and respectful appreciation of acts of selflessness from others.
I want deep personal connections (opening up for rejection), but you should not crave them to a point where you're sabotaging your self respect.

Neediness is when you value what people think of you more than what you think of yourself, and "self-confidence" is just the fame you got with yourself throughout time.

Embracing vulnerability is the key out of social stigma, ditching neediness and acting on becoming a powerhouse of lividity.
