Something like this, \u201cOH, so when you choose to not be transparent, you are meeting your need for privacy?\u201d. Then you get to have a conversation where you are curious about where the other person is at and why they are doing what they are doing. Bingo, authentic connection.&#8217;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I love it!  Thank you, Emma.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heads up, this content is 18 years old.
