what happened to me is not your story to tell not everything you know about a person is yours to spread. you may have seen a part of my life, but you did not live it. you didn't carry the weight of my choices, my struggles, or my healing. and respect still matters, even when we are no longer close. not every story needs an audience, and not every detail deserves to be repeated. some things were shared in trust, not for exposure. so learn to keep what's not yours. silence can be respect, and respect says more than any story you could ever tell.
