Is there a story unfolding in your community? Let Hivisasa know

Most people keep their relationship private when it is young. The couple involved is not yet sure of what is going on. They are still figuring each other out. It is a great idea to keep things on the low. It gives you enough space to figure out if things are going to work out or not. Keeping your relationship private does not necessarily mean denying the one you love. It does not mean pretending that you do not know them and the like. You just keep people aloof as far as your relationship is concerned. Refraining from expressing your issues with your partner is something you get used to. People meddling in your relationship is never interesting. That is how they know what to talk about. The gossip that flies around about your private matters can be extremely demoralizing and embarrassing. When people do not know what is going on in your relationship, they are left to guess. Keeping things private denies them facts to gauge how great you are doing. Even in your tumultuous moments, you are able to tackle your matters privately without external intrusions and interruptions.
