“Don't allow people into your world close enough to where they become so comfortable that it makes you uncomfortable.”

Many times, we feel compelled to open our hearts so wide that it gets trampled.

It is truly a good idea to maintain a healthy distance from everyone, especially, friends and relatives so you do not lose sight of yourself.

An element of mystery is a necessary ingredient for all relationships. This approach keeps people interested in you as a person. It also helps prevent people from knowing so much about your personal and business life that they start offering unwanted advice at any moment.

Are you allowing others to invade your personal life too deeply?

Proverbs 27:6
Wounds from a friend can be trusted, but an enemy multiplies kisses.
