people like closed books

so there are people who are like open book you go and talk to them and you know about them about there nature and what they are going through.

and then there are others who are like closed books. you be with them for years but still you wont know what they realy are :bummer:
whatn makes them happy:) or :frowning: ..they can be totaly opposite to what they pretend to be .,

do you know any one in your life that belong to the second type ?
do you find them more attractive than the open book ones? :wink:

Re: people like closed books

You’re intrigued/drawn to the mystery of the person that seems to be like a closed book due to either not revealing much about themselves or lacking consistency/making contradictions. It has its allure, but over time it can also become frustrating to deal with.

Re: people like closed books

agree . but do you think they do it intentionally ?

Re: people like closed books

i know about 3 people like this.. yeah they are my best friends and i dont really bother who they are in real (it does hurt when after years you find out they are not what they pretend to be {thats called fakeness}) but talking about closed books. it depends on you… how to treat them and find out about thier likes and dislikes… what make them happy and sad.. if you are true to them one day they surely open up themselves..

Someone who is more private is not necessarily fake, you know what they want to share and don’t know what they don’t want to share. They could also reveal different aspects of themselves to different people based on their reasons.

Re: people like closed books

yup.. their are 2 types of people.. one who want to keep themselves private… we can call them “closed books”
but one who keep their real identity private and pretend to be what they are not they are fake people

Re: people like closed books

i think sometime experience in past can lead to be more private and less open .. and these people wont share anything unless they are sure you will understand.

Re: people like closed books

here on gs most of us using covernames but that does not effect on what we are as a person we will respond to everything the way we respond in real life. (unintentionally) by hiding your identity you can not hide your nature.

Re: people like closed books

but using a nick and hide behind someother name… is way much different.. for example.. if you dont want to tell about age say you dont want to.. instead of telling wrong age..
