i spent yesterday afternoon with a long time friend that i trust with the whole of me. i have a good circle of friends, but she is one of the very few that i can speak to on a level... i don't see her often, but she actually listens and gives me guidance on a deeper level. being an empath this is something that i rarely get. it's usually a case of if i do open up a bit to others, they tend to flip it back to them and they end up going on about their situations, or problems etc and that's where i shut down because the way in which i speak i need the other person to actually listen and not many people actually do... don't get me wrong, yes i tell my close friends things about my life, but there's a lot i don't tell them. even ny bestest, most closest friends don't know much about me and my personal life, because i choose not to tell them... if i do tell people things it's either very vague or they only get parts of it... i prefer to keep some things sacred and i don't like to give people too much information about me, because a) when you're an empath, majority of the time people don't truly listen... b) people start thinking they have you all figured out just because you've told them something about your personal life and c) nothing good comes from lots of people knowing your business! π― #realstuff #staywoke #keepyourselftoyourself #donttellpeopletoomuch #dontgiveouttoomuch #bevague #keepthingssacred #keepyourpersonallifepersonal #stayinyourmagic ππ« https://www.instagram.com/p/BvAG_HTn0fj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=exr610dygs4d
