Is it just me?

Fold your arms any way you like! Why on earth would people around you even mention it? In the larger scheme of things, arm-folding is pretty far down the list of things to worry about. Just enjoy the new you.

I cross my arms across my chest all the time. It's just comfortable to me. Just like crossing my legs all the time. I think I just do it so much because I can and its comfortable now and wasn't really before. :) I do worry sometimes though because folding your arms across your chest (the way I do) could be Percieved as an attitude, or being unapproachable according to body language so I'm careful to be extra friendly and talkative etc so that I'm not misunderstood. Lol

I realized at some point that I was crossing my arms a lot because I CAN. I never could before, since it was too uncomfortable, my arms were too short, and my body too big. Now I can, so I do! :)
