I'm not sure if this applies to this forum but I'll just ask anyway before it gets moved.
I've been having a argument with my girl cousin over the issue of handling information about each other's dating info.
Basically, I shared my cousin's dating story just with my mom who was into it and this somehow went back to my cousin. For this, I got an earfull about how americans are very very private about it and would not want relatives to know even a sliver of it.
She said that she is a very "private" person... To me, she is being a beeee even though she's my relative.
I've lived here for awhiile so I thought I have some knowledge about the culture here but I felt its better if I ask the real americans here. I know some of this might be based on opinions but if anybody can contribute, that would be great!
