If someone wants to know your business, tell them to invest in it.

At what age do you stay out of others' business? I'm just asking because everywhere you turn, some folks have to know your every move: What you're doing, how you're doing it, are you ok, this, that & the other. There are two kinds of people who do this: 1. Those who mean well, and 2. Those who are fishing for information to use against you at a later date. If you're meeting someone for the first time, and their energy is right, those are the people you don't mind sharing your affairs with because you know they'll keep your business between you and them. Whatever issues you and them may have, you two immediately squash your beef and get back on good terms. You seldom have skirmishes with people who mean well because deep down, they want the best for you, and vice versa. You have to watch those in Group #2 because they slide in like a snake. Nobody's gonna come into your life just to cause drama. They're gonna play a wolf even though they're wearing sheep's clothing.
Those who are fishing for information to use against you at a later date, you have to keep an eye on them because you never know when they're going to strike. They act friendly, and want to keke with some tea. So far, things are going good between you until they start showing their true colors. What starts off as little skirmishes turns into epic confrontations. What you told them in confidence starts spreading like wildifre, and they start becoming besties with former enemies. Weren't you just battling with this & that person a week ago, and now you're besties? Get on with that nonsense. I pride myself on being a very private person, which is why I don't lead a drama-filled life. I don't keke with some tea with everybody because although some people may mean well, people are great actors. For those who want to know your business, tell them to become an investor. That's how you stop nosy folks in their tracks.
