Is it normal for me to think this way or is there something wrong with me?

I (20) will try to keep it short: I hate it when people talk about me. It doesn't even have to be negative. Even if others say something positive (or neutral) about me, I feel uncomfortable and don't even want to think about people talking about me or mentioning me in a conversation.

A small example: My boss and my aunt know each other. When I tell my aunt something, it sometimes comes out to my boss. Then she says something like, "So your aunt told me you're interested in XY?" or "I heard you're quite a bright mind!"

When I hear sentences like that, it makes me feel uncomfortable, and I'd rather no one say anything about me. Do you feel the same way, or should I be worried that I'm being too negative/closeted?

No, I think that’s normal. Because conversations are taking place behind your back. Sure is also positive what is said, but where positive is, there is also negative and lets people appear as opponents.

I know so much. I hate it when people know what about me or believe it to do

I do not accept praise etc, safe therefore I am arrogant, but do it with intention

I am really happy when people say something about me, which is nice, but also understand when it bothers you
