How to reply to it's personal? ›

It depends on your personality. In direct conversations, I find it hard for me to tell someone straight up that they're encroaching on my privacy so I jokingly push their question to the extreme.

The “Good Enough” Relationship

In a good enough relationship, people have high expectations for how they're treated. They expect to be treated with kindness, love, affection, and respect. They do not tolerate emotional or physical abuse. They expect their partner to be loyal.
