is it save to share your thoughts or ur personal feelings to strangers?
if you're starving for friendship, i suppose you would. whether that makes it right or wrong, safe or unsafe, is a 50/50 chance.
I don't see the harm. You might come off as a nutter, but who cares, you're probably never going to see that person again. If looking crazy is your concern then your absolute safest bet at sharing your thoughts with a stranger comes in the form of counselors, psychologists, priests, (or their equivalent) and psychiatrists. You can gab all you want and not have to worry about what they think of you, they're trained to listen without judgment. Granted they may cost a little (or a lot) of money to enlist their services but none of your information will be shared.
If your intention is to make a friend, I would say to just strike up a conversation with someone. Leave personal stuff out unless the two of you are comfortable enough to go down that road.
Depends if they're dependable to keep things private. Its also easier to confess things to people you don't know, if you're aware you may not see them again. There is some comfort in knowing if they are unscrupulous people, they will not be able to trace you, or use it against you.

What do we do when a guy friend turns into something more? When feelings of friendship blossom into something more romantic than sharing giggles and talk of school work?What are we meant to do, girls? Confusing, isn't it? When we go for it, we jeopardize our friendships. When we don't, we very well...

My dearest hubbers,This is kind of an embarrising thing for me to talk about. I make certain I do not inform my friends on my love life status as I do not trust them not to bugger things up for me (as they have done in the past) - I come to you because you do not know me personally.That and you can...
