I think im a bit of a fence sitter as well  i tend to be quite reserved depending on the topic

A few years ago i had some very personal information used against me as blackmail so i guess i have trust issues which really sucks. I try to be very careful about what i say, and to who i say it to.

Then again if its about a issue i feel strongly about i will add my 2c

I am reserved when I dont know people, but once I feel comfortable I am fairly open.

I also tend to answer questions too honestly. My first week at a new job I had to get CD21 tests done. I quietly told one of my colleagues I was just had to duck out to get a blood test. She immediately asked "what for?", I was so unprepared for that question that I responded "My GP thinks I am not ovulating, so have to get bloods done to check"

She has never questioned me again!]]> Wed, 18 Jun 2008 20:56:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18328&PID=416593&title=how-open-are-you#416593 <![CDATA[How open are you??? : don&#039;t know...many things...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18328&PID=416580&title=how-open-are-you#416580 Author: lizzle

it depends on what it is that i am being open about....for example, i am really open about my miscarriages, but have been pretty closed about my journey (although that is changing).

i have been hurt badly a couple of times by so called friends, so now im careful about who i tell what if you know what i mean.

I am really open with DH and my closest friend and my mother, I tend to avoid anything online that is going to involve me having a major opinion as i just cant be bothered if it turns nasty

I'm pretty open, straight up and not afraid to speak up. I usually take things just that little bit too far and then think oh just shut up why don't you.

Although there are degrees of openness depending on who I am talking to. DH and my sisters are probably the people who I am most open with.

Serenity that so cracked me up, and reminded me of my antenatal group (although its not quite that full on) Some of the topics we talk about sometimes I think would be an eye opener to our DH's!!]]> Wed, 18 Jun 2008 15:40:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18328&PID=416279&title=how-open-are-you#416279 <![CDATA[How open are you??? : im waaaaaay too open. no surprises...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18328&PID=416234&title=how-open-are-you#416234 Author: fattartsrock

I'm not open at all, since I've moved towns couple of times in the last 7 years I tend to keep things to myself.
Its different with friends who have known me since we were in our teens and 20s.
But there are aspects of that time I don't think anyone wants or needs to know.

I new tend to only tell whats going on with me at the moment and thats enough. ]]> Wed, 18 Jun 2008 09:05:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18328&PID=415797&title=how-open-are-you#415797 <![CDATA[How open are you??? : I&#039;m pretty open.

I'm an open book usually.

Lol Becks about the toys, we went round to a friends house and we were all looking through the Joanna G mailer together to decide which ones we should each get, then after that the boys decided they'd have a look and decide which ones were best!

I'm a lot more open now, I never used to talk about depression etc which I've had since I was 15 (only one friend and my counsellor knew), now pretty much every man and his dog know and it makes it so much easier I reckon.

Sometimes I think I'm too open. I often say things then think 'damn maybe should have left that bit out' or consulted DH before sharing (intimate details, but he does it too so all's fair in love and war!)]]> Tue, 17 Jun 2008 23:06:25 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18328&PID=415673&title=how-open-are-you#415673 <![CDATA[How open are you??? : With close friends they know everything...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18328&PID=415567&title=how-open-are-you#415567 Author: Kels

Not just online but with your friends.

I have a few friends that I am really open with and they know heaps of things about me and I know a lot about them too.

How about you???
