Do you remember that time you bribed your brother not to tell mom about your late night parties? And do you remember how your BFF never told your boyfriend anything about your past relationships? You yourself must remember never letting your father know about that girl your brother was secretly dating. Well, life just isn’t complete without keeping some secrets.
Those extremely personal moments
Be it your sex life or those nasty fights with your partner, you really need to keep them a secret to respect the relationship you have with the other person. Even if you have a friend or family member you’re extremely close to, you should think twice before sharing such things. However, if you are a victim of abuse you must immediately get some help.
Negative remarks on someone’s personality
It’s human nature to judge a book by its cover (though you should avoid doing this), but when you bring that negative judgment about someone in front of others, you end up colouring their opinion with your thoughts. You shouldn’t be doing this because it’s morally ambiguous and you’ll also come across as a very negative person.
All of your greatest ambitions
Yes, you may feel happy while talking about your ambitions with someone you know but that’s actually not a very good idea. In fact, by revealing them, you give the other person a chance to pinpoint a drawback in those plans, which will only end up demotivating you.
The family issues you may be facing
What happens in a family, stays in a family. Never let this golden rule leave your mind because no one in this world can understand your family issues the way you want them to. So, it’s better for you to just keep things to yourself.
Good deeds
If you are doing social work or just helping someone out, you must keep it to yourself. Because when you brag about it, you only end up killing its worth.
