Predators can detect trauma on highly sensitive people, and it on us to learn how to stop broadcasting vulnerability. Our body language, posture, and energy signals either invite predatory behavior or repel it, and you can shift this immediately. The signs are specific: shrinking to appear smaller, avoiding eye contact, over-apologizing, and moving through the world trying to be invisible. These patterns read as "easy target" to manipulators and abusers. The fix starts with practicing boundaries in low-stakes situations, trusting your gut even when it feels confusing, and understanding that when someone rushes intimacy or isolates you from support systems, your body knows something's wrong before your mind catches up. The goal isn't avoiding all predators but recognizing targeting fast, cutting off access immediately, and becoming so boundaried that manipulators pass you over like a house with a barking dog.
