/ˈtʃeə.ri/ (adj)
Definition
very cautious and afraid and therefore unwilling to take risks or take action, circumspect, uncertain, discreet, guarded, heedful, wary, shy, considerate, distrustful, suspicious, careful, dubious, skeptical
Example
If you’ve ever engaged in a meaningful conversation with someone in the final chapter of their life (a very worthwhile thing to do!) and asked them about the risks they took, or didn’t take, most will tell you they wish they’d settled less and spoken up more; that they’d been more bold and less chary or cautious. Likewise if you look back on your life until now, odds are that you probably wish you’d trusted yourself more often, and been less reticent to make changes and taken chances.
