Follow up to 'Sad'

So the last paragraph is what I want to focus on from my last post.  If the information you have been given from someone 'close' to you seems like it should be shared for whatever reason, I would think the first reaction would be to get permission.  Is this not normal?  If I was asked to keep certain information away from specific persons, yet I felt those specific persons would want to know or my confidant would benefit from those specific persons knowing, then my first reaction would be to talk to the person who shared the information with me and asked me to keep their trust.  If, when talking to them I was still asked to not share the information, then I would urge them to tell those specific persons, reasoning that it would benefit all parties involved.  THIS IS WHAT NORMAL PEOPLE DO!

My gut reaction right now is to close myself off.  I have had a few too many negative experiences sharing my life with certain people and I am tired.  I'm tired of being criticized and treated like I can't make my own decisions.  It's time to limit my life to who I know are my real friends.  Thanks to those who tempt me into looking at family relationships with cynics eyes and a cynics heart.
