Your mother was right. When you open up to people, they usually reciprocate but it's important to share what you feel comfortable with and with whom. Not everybody is trustworthy and it's a good idea to disclose a little at a time until you get to know them better. I have connected with some people, and it was a one-way street. When that happens, I let it go and move on. Thank you for connecting!

I can really relate to this! Growing up, I had this belief that I shouldn't get too close to anyone because I'm just gonna lose them anyway later on. I really like the quote by Brene Brown and it's still something I'm learning to balance (undersharing vs. oversharing) to this day. Thanks for sharing! :)
