I often think about my relationship with people. Have I created some boundaries? Yes. Am I being selfish? No. I think everyone should have some privacy and that is our own decision. I don't think anyone has the right to decide what could be my privacy about. I can include anything I want that's what I feel like.
And sometimes I see that people are not accepting it in a good way. I have seen many getting disappointed because I don't seem to share much about myself but I would say to them that you must create that space for me to sure otherwise why would I? It's not like I am this way always. I am extrovert with people who I am comfortable with and I don't feel the necessity to make my circle bigger.
So when I don't want to share about a specific thing it's my personal choice and that could be anything. I also think people shouldn't get offended about it. Everyone has the right to be themselves and so do I.
And I feel everyone should take this lightly and not be so serious about it. I could have my own reasons for behaving in a certain way to specific person. But I also know I'm not perfect and I do make mistakes. But this thing about privacy it's my personal matter.
What happens if you let someone barge in? Well for an example, I had friends who used to think of me in a different way like I'm nothing. Just because I had shared a few things about my life they thought now they have the privilege to say anything they want. They only knew what I told them, they don't know me fully but they decided to judge me.
To them I wasn't smart enough, to them my experience was less and they underestimated me a lot. I never complained because what others say doesn't bother me much. But I got the knowledge that they are treating me in a certain way because I let them see vulnerable side of me.
Well, not everyone is the same, I know, I know. I am not judging everyone, just explain why I am the way I am now. People should understand everything has a reason and nothing happens without a reason. People tend to judge without knowing me personally. I am not an arrogant person and I don't like arrogant people.
I can't be something I dislike but all I am trying to do is to protect myself. I don't want to go through any drama I am just being cautious about the person I am sharing my informations with. It doesn't mean you are less important to me than my other friends.
I have same love and respect for all of my friends. But I prefer to keep some things private and not share it with everyone else. That's nothing to hide but I just don't like people judging me without knowing me. And I'm not ready to handle those things.
For that reason today my relationship with people may not be on good terms but I try to stay respectful as much as I can. So if you don't maintain some privacy then the other person could feel entitled to judge you quickly. It's better to have some things private.
