Is it better to be an open book about who you are or keep secrets from the rest of the world


Some things are best locked away
I need to practice that more often. I share too much about myself and I'm too trusting. My wife tells me that all the time. Not everyone is your friend and I need to remember that
It's better to save the import bits for important people
I once had a terrible situation happen in my life that I was very ashamed of and I was in a new neighborhood and my wife had left me and I consoled with a guy who was a police officer who I thought was a good guy. Well, weeks later we were playing beer pong at a guy's house and we were talking shit back and forth as guys do and he brought up my incident and I quickly realized that he had already told everybody in the neighborhood my business. I felt completely betrayed. I tried to fight the guy but I learned a lesson. Not everybody. Is your friend and you definitely should guard your information closely
