As humans, we should respect each other’s decisions and do well not to tamper with people’s emotions. This is one way we can have a good life and a nice relationship with others too. If we decide to keep our pace understand other people, and accept them for who they are, then it’s going to happen that we have a long-lasting relationship no matter who the person may be.
This is why many people find themselves quarreling with other people around them, or you realize they are so close today and then the next day they are distant apart from each other. I guess miscommunication is one key factor in having issues with people. And understanding is one way to prevent miscommunication.
I find myself not relating to people so quickly. Some people might challenge me for not being so social and I am fine with the version of myself. But once I get to relate with you and know you for who you are. Then it will be so hard to depart from such a person.
This is because I take my time to study and observe the kind of person I want to get closer to. The earlier the better. If they are people I have the vibes to relate with, then it won't take much before the bond gets stronger. And if there are people I find myself inconvenient around I won't give a gap, but I will make sure the bond doesn't get beyond expectations.
Talking about my private life or my privacy in general. I love to keep things to myself so much and this happens most of the time because I have learned to train myself to be more independent of others. I have the mindset that nobody is coming to help if you don't help yourself first. So this game made me scale through hard times, and also have fun when there is ease.
But no matter what, I find myself so free and open-minded to anyone I am close to. I can discuss to any extent, my progress, relationships, experiences, and many other private matters of my life so far I realize the person is someone I can confide in.
Many times I discuss more with my siblings and my parents and this is because of the bond our parents have built in us and also the one we have built for ourselves.
I have friends to whom I tell my stories, and so far they are ready to listen to them and not the type that always just wants to listen and not want to share.
It’s a different thing when you tell people about yourself and get to know just a few about them. It means you trust them but they don't trust you in return. There should be a mutual relationship between both.
It’s fine when people also decide not to tell others their stories or feel their lives should be private. But making others feel bad about the fact that they share them with people is not encouraged. I have seen a lot of people go anonymous and some share their privacy with others and instead of being kept a secret between both parties, they get to expose them without permission to do so.
This is insecurity, and a lot of people have trampled upon this kind of experience but then learned the hard way not to share their privacy with anyone.
This is my response to the HIVE LEARNERS weekly prompt in hive learners community for the Week 119 Edition 3 and the topic to be discussed is HOW PRIVATE SHOULD YOU BE?
