Question from a loved READER....
"What would you say about two people who are having a growing relationship together, however, one person wants to share information about the relationship but the other wants to keep everything private?
Like, if one person wants to take pictures and post on IG, FB, or Twitter, wants to hold hands or kiss in public, wants to tell their friends about whats going on, but the other doesn't want to share any of that because they feel its simply none of their business."
MY ANSWER:
I feel like, part of it depends upon the length and nature of the relationship. If the two people made an exclusive commitment to one another, I find it strange that one person would be so private that they can't even show any PDA (Public Displays of Affection) to their partner. Social media can be a touchy subject for people and everyone treats it differently, so I won't hold the privacy levels against them because it could be a comfort level type of thing.
However, this would be a sign for me (if I was in this situation) to keep my eyes open. Not be overly suspicious or create ideas in my mind, (some people are entirely too good at that) but to just know that it could be a sign of wanting to live in two different worlds. A person (male or female) who is living in two different worlds will always have other signs present to back up the initial sign. Most of the time, we just have to pay attention and not be in denial about things.
For certain people, it does take time for them to transition into the mentality of being committed to another person (privately and publicly) so even if they are trying to ease into that, the best thing to do would be to try and open a dialog about it. Communication can solve so many things when two mature adults make the effort to get on the same page. Everyone should attempt to do this with their armor OFF, with a clear mind and an open heart.
Hope this helps some! xoxoxoxoxo
