someone can be afraid to do something and still do it

[–] Woht24@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yes they can, but the use of 'too afraid to ask' implies they won't or can't do it.

I'm dealing with it fine, I just said it's stupid. You don't seem to be dealing too well though so perhaps you should look inward at your ability to 'deal with it'.
