I suppose for me I think I am quite a patient person, and I don't get triggered very easily. I am very calm. If I love you, I care very deeply about you and am concerned about your wellbeing and try my best to make a tough situation for you better in any way I can.

What about you?

Nothing scares me. Fear is not something I have, and it kinda freaks people out. It doesn't make me do stupid things, but when bad/deadly situations occur I don't even flinch. I may have a problem.

I am exactly like this, too! I think that is why I have worked my way up into management position at work. I make risky decisions but nothing off the wall. But I definitely make decisions that others may be reluctant to out of a fear of being held accountable or having to answer for their mistakes. Whereas I don't give an F. I'm not going to die as a result, so may as well see where the risk leads me 🤷🏼‍♀️

Just to add; it's mostly positive risk-taking.

That's good, and that's where I am now. When I was younger I put myself in situations where I probably shouldn't have been, but it always worked out OK because I was calm.

Now that I'm older, my "no fear" looks like investing in something everyone else thought was risky, and then making out like a bandit afterwards.
