PERSONAL
close to home and where one lives
affecting one personally and intimately. (Informal.)Her remarks were a bit too close to home. I was afraid she was discussing me!She’s got me figured out all right. She knows where I live.Every criticism she made of the performance hit a little too close to home for my comfort. I didn't know I was so bad!When you go through an experience like that and see the horror of a hurricane face to face, that sort of gets you where you live!
