Everyone has experienced getting hurt by someone else. Many choose to build "emotional walls" to shield themselves from similar occurrences. What happens though is that you isolate yourself behind these walls and you end up in a self imposed prison. Behind these walls you are still nursing your wound, terrified of facing this emotion again, which also means that you aren't working through it, which in turn leads to this 'vulnerability' growing out of proportion to the original happening and becoming a huge obstacle, a dragon you can't get past.
Building a wall is counterproductive to healing. It only increases the pain and suffering. Do yourself a favor and work through your hurt. Though it is unpleasant at the moment, it teaches you, helps you grow and frees up your future to endless possibilities and joys.
