In the current information age, it seems to be difficult to protect privacy. Strangers can find the private information of others via the Internet, but the problem of protecting privacy also exists between friends. Friends should also remember to respect the privacy of each other's.
Real friends leave each other enough personal space. Friends can share secrets while they also have the right to keep some secrets. A friend is a person who makes life lively but not one who controls someone else's life. Over concern may make others feel uncomfortable. People should have their private lives at times and their privacy should not be disturbed.
Real friends also need to keep private information for each other. They cannot give away this to others, even if they do not think it should be private. An increasing number of people enjoy posting their photos with friends on Facebook. They think it is fun and want more people to share their happiness. This may bother their friends, however, if they do this without their friends' permission. Some people might consider this information as private and real friends are supposed to understand and respect that.
As well as friendship, privacy is important to each individual. Real friendship is based on mutual respect for privacy; this kind of friendship can be stable, relaxed and enjoyable.

Ha~~A fantastic blog!!Wish you a deep-in-heart friendship~~
ReplyDeleteThank you. I wish you too.
DeleteI will respect your privacy and keep you secrets if you have told me some.
ReplyDeleteI believe in you. Thank you.
DeleteYes, sometimes it is embarrassing when my close friend ask my privacy. I also think even very good friends should keep some secrets rather than try to know every thing of him or her.
ReplyDeleteI have the same experience too. I feel it hard to refuse these questions, but I think if I refuse, they would understand.
DeleteI think it is the close friends that like to find each other's privacy.
ReplyDeleteThe real friends want to ask some private questions to know more about you, but the real friends won't do it again if you tell them not.
I agree with you. Sometimes we ask questions just to be concerned about friends. Real friends will not feel angry about that.
DeleteI agree with you. Even if they are very close friends, they also should repect each other's privacy. Sometimes disrespecting of a friend's privacy may cause the friendship broken up. It's very important to make room for pricay to friends. In my opinion, friends should understand and respect each other. If they are within the boundary, everything is fine. Otherwise, something may get wrong!
ReplyDeleteYes, it is hard to know where the boundary is but I think it is necessary to realize the boundary do exsit.
DeleteI cannot agree with you more. If somenone is your close friend, he or she should show his or her respect to you. If not, he or she is not your real close friend.
ReplyDeleteGood idea. Close friends understand and respect each other.
DeleteI agree with your opinion. There are some things that cannot be shared for everyone. Whether others think it is privacy or not, you are unwilling to let others know about it. So I think if they are your real friends, they will leave that room for you. They will not force you to tell them everything about yourself. That is a basic respect.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! People are so concerned with *online* privacy problems that we can forget our own responsibilities towards others! I agree that it's extremely important to protect the privacy of our friends, including things that we might not consider "private" ourselves! Thanks for the interesting and challenging reminder to us all! ^_^
