Posted by HappyCapperWell, I'll be honest. There are things I omit because until I trust them its better left unsaid. Life changing things that you only discuss after knowing someone for a long time.Posted by MohiniWhat needs to be omitted? Why does it need to be omitted, you feel?
Im rather open, but I omit what needs to be omitted. I like being open but there's a time for it.click to expand
I have been completely open - too much perhaps- and it was fine but I'm becoming more reserved with age. I'm 27. I just learned what to keep close to heart.
If asked, I'll tell. But I'm not forthcoming.
What's your situation and how do you behave with what you share? Can you give an example?

To put it simple, I go on a need to know basis. If you ask, you may get additional info, but I'm very good at changing the subject, or to gently push it onto the other person...resulting in them sharing instead.

Posted by HappyCapperThe makings of a great psychiatrist I'm sure ha. Im guilty of the same.

Maybe we just want the right person to open up to. Nothing wrong with it.
Posted by angel43I'm sure the two of you will be fine!🙂 I really really love him and have done so for ages, but we're not a couple. Just very very good friends nowadays.
Thanks Happy Capper, I hope you are wrong too ! 😉
I do know that my ex cap and current one only opened up because they really loved me, and it was and is very obvious. I hope hope you really love him :-)
Posted by angel43Most caps will not tell someone that they love them without it actually being true. At least that's what I think and I practice it myself. Thank you🙂
My current cap was with a woman for one year, and he never said that he loved her, because he didn't. He was just content I guess..Good Luck to you too!
Posted by MohiniI've managed to do it to psychologists during job interviews. When they realised that they had spent half the interview time talking about their husband and kids, they were furious. lolPosted by HappyCapperThe makings of a great psychiatrist I'm sure ha.

If I'm not able to open up to people I've known for 20+ years and that I trust, I have a hard time seeing how a new person would manage. Think It's more likely that I'll succeed with the "old" friends. But who knows.🙂
Posted by angel43Oh. Have a great evening(or whatever time of day it is where you are)!🙂
Yes, that is true, but I didn't know if you actually said you love this person because you said that you did not open up..Just wondering :-) going out with my guy. Have a good night :-)

@HappyCapper- Not that many, and I don't know why...o3 a year perhaps.
