Is it easier to talk to a stranger about problems then people in your own circle?

Answer 1

Sometimes, ABSOLUTELY. Strangers can be more objective, since they don't know you, and are usually less likely to judge you. (Unless you get one of our resident "haters" that I see in here occasionally!) I think it's nice to get an outside opinion, as long as you're not making any life decisions, based on stranger's input.

Answer 2

I think it is easier to talk to strangers about my problems. Because I just don't know how to talk about my problems to my family and boyfriend. Even though I should be able to.

Answer 3

It's much easier to talk to a stranger, because they have nothing invested in you. I told my best friend today that I"ve been having suicidal thoughts and she freaked.

Answer 4

at times, yes. I have had no problem telling my life story to strangers on the net

Answer 5

i think so, because even if it may be awkward, it's not like you'll necessarily see that person everyday. like, if i were to tell my best friend a really deep secret, i'd be reminded of that trust every time i saw her, and if she were to break it, i'd have to face her everyday. strangers don't really know where you're coming from, so it can be easier. but i still think its important to rely on your friends with that kinda stuff

Answer 6

yes,i never talk to a person close to me about my personal problems but i do share them with strangers

Answer 7

Sometimes yes. It gives you an outsiders perspective of the situation.

Answer 8

Of course! Objectivity!

Answer 9

easier to talk to ppl on the net lol

Answer 10

yes
