I prefer to share them with friends tbh

I share most of my worries with my partner and then my family. I feel like my partner understands me more and has the same kind of views as me so it makes it feel easier to tell him stuff than anyone else. I don't tell friends as much as I tell my partner or family though tbh, I only have one or two close friends, everyone else is more of an acquaintance.

I did start sharing them with people a few months back, people I thought to be close friends, because I was struggling with a lot. But things turned pretty shitty with that and I decided not to bother sharing my inner thoughts with anyone for a while.

Best not to reveal how emotionally messed up I am inside haha :tongue:

I have one very close friend who I have known for years and trust completely so I tell them stuff like that. Everyone else gets the hard face.

I wish there was some kind of way where you could talk to a complete stranger who could give you an advice without judging you.---You can share w// me. Don't take it serious unless you want to
keep, people don't want to know about my problems, why the f**k would they want to know? unless i'm going to therapy or something(i won't)
Hope all of you who have replied would see my view. The reason I have raised that kind of an issue is when you are arguing with a person/ family they are starting to remember most of that "shitty" stuff that you have shared with them.
--- Would are your opinions?

I write down my thoughts and put them in a sack with a snake, a chicken and a dog, and tie the sack. Then I throw the sack into a river and throw the river into space.

There are sites for that - certain forums (even TSR) but there's also one called 7 cups of tea or something which is great for that.

I have high standards, the moment they use it against me they're gone.

The reason is that some people would understand and forget it but others would keep reminding you about it

I don't tell them anything, trust runs deeper than blood.

I have one close friend that I share everything with. I usually just tell my family stuff on a need to know basis, otherwise it just leads to drama
