Fear is a powerful feelings, but LOVE and COURAGE are more powerful.
I know exactly when you talk about sharing your love life in a later stage. When I met my partner( now my husband) i told him that he is not allowed to post any pictures or stories of me on social media until we are ready for it. And it wasn`t that I am ashamed of him or anything, it was about getting stronger together. Getting these first months just for ourselves, without someone commenting or saying something.
As when new energies, new things happening in our lives, we are very vulnerable. Just because there is fear, fear of unknown and fear of your change. Because we change, wheatear we like it or not, but we change when we fall in love, when we start a new career or when we move to another country.
And this is scary and now if you share it with the world immediately, you will get some "feedback" from there as such , you are making a wrong decision, this is not good for you and etc..
This is why I always recommend to keep things to yourself first when you start, that you learn how to cope with the fear, build your strength and knowing that this is exactly what I want and who I am.
And then if someone says something, you do not care, as you are passed by this stage.
Thanks for sharing your story.
