Well, it seems like the majority of people are open with their loved ones about this and that is great. I still believe to each their own. And a pump is taking it to a WHOLE new level in my opinion. I love my pump though.

I have always been a very private person when it comes to my body. Even when in pain, I have always just kept it to to myself. I mean, I never even told anyone when I started my period, including my mom! I just started stealing her tampons.

I guess if I had to analyze, it could have something to do with having a judgmental mom so I was never open with her. And growing up I was very shy. You could say I was a late bloomer all around. I didn't open up until I was a bit older, say in high school. Some friends say it's because I never had a sister, but who knows! It's never been an issue to me being private though. I've always been very independent and learned to rely on nobody but myself.

It possibly also has to do with the city I live in which has always been filled with so many gossipers. The less people were saying about me the better, so I got used to not divulging too much about myself.

I don't know if any of that has to do with me keeping NBE secret but there's my psychoanalysis.
