I find it very annoying when someone tries to look at what I'm doing on my phone.

24f here

I write a lot of issues I have on this site and I just don't want other people (especially my nosy sister who's 20) to see.

She tried looking at it yesterday and I quickly clicked off the site.
She's like "You must have a lot of secrets, I don't mind if anyone sees my phone"
Tbh she doesn't know Everything about me and there's stuff I need advice on and don't feel comfortable talking to her about.

is it normal I hide my phone from her and don't like people using my phone

    Hell yeah, it's normal, and you have a right to your privacy!

        Why do you feel guilty?

          Because I feel bad for hiding stuff, makes me feel like I'm doing something wrong

            Well, in what way would you be doing something wrong! How is it wrong to want some privacy for your own personal cell phone which is rather like a diary in many ways? If you are doing something that's morally wrong it's between you and God, if you are doing something legally wrong you will eventually get caught. I personally cannot see anything wrong or sinful about wanting privacy from a younger sister. You don't owe her a glimpse of your private thoughts and feelings. You can choose to share, but you should never feel obligated.

              Thank you! I appreciate your elaborate response and makes me feel much better! !:)

              I guess I'm more afraid of judgment even on little things. I have anxiety which also doesn't help.
              I also have been questioning my sexuality for a long time and stuff.
              I guess I have high expectations of myself and if I don't act or feel perfect then I feel I'm in the wrong. I also expect a lot from others (well I used to).
              Sorry if I don't make sense, not feeling myself today

    She has no right to be on your phone and honestly it's a bit weird that she's trying.

    Put a password on your phone, girl.

    I do the same thing to my brother because whenever he finds out what I'm doing he somehow twists it to make fun of me.

      He really wants you to put him in his place.

        I'm a few years younger so there's not really much I can do
