Sometimes, I just like to be left alone, especially if it's none of their business and nothing that concerns them.
If I think they can help me or I need to get something off my chest, after a bit of effort, they'll eventually get it out of me.
I do prefer to tell people things in my own time though.. but I guess some people are either just really nosey or genuinely want to help. :) [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
