There's a lot I don't share on facebook

I think that anytime you open up on facebook about your real feelings, and real thoughts, your real dream, you open up yourself to a lot of grief from some rude people all around. I'm cognizant of that, and that what prevents me from sharing too much of anything on facebook.

I don't share everything in facebook- and why should i need to share aint! Why shout it to the whole world. Honestly- it's funny when people posted this and that in facebook and when someone commented negatively- they get annoyed. So, better keep our private life- be in private. Unless one is willing to be a laughing stock, be annoyed and irritated.

same here. I usually share articles, videos, blogs etc but not necessarily personal things those I only share with close friends, sometimes I keep to myself

I joined FB at the insistence of a friend and not because i wanted to.I certainly found many people on it whom i had lost touch with.However i hardly ever go to the site but it is useful to me in one way and that tells me when somebody is going to celebrate a birthday because i receive notifications fro FB in my email.That is the only good thing about it otherwise i really don`t need it.As for sharing anything i usually don`t do it.

I have alot of friends and extended family on Facebook. I like to put funny sayings and such on my status and hope it makes people laugh. I don't share person issues on there. I write person emails to people or chat with them on there to tell them things. I don't but it on the wall. What's your name so we can be friends on there?

I share very little on facebook. There is too many people searching around there that mix their professional lives with their private lives for my comfort. I am a bit of a private person and the moment I opened an account there was the "company gossiper" on there trying to friend me along with many of her friends. I guess if I were more outgoing it would be ok...my b/f loves facebook and stays in constant contact with his friends on there. He is a "social butterfly" though..lol. Take care.

I do not have a facebook account for that very reason. I sometimes ponder what I would or would not share if I was on facebook because I am more of a private person. I do not really want to share my life and my thoughts with everyone that would know me on facebook. Thus I hesitate to get on. On the other hand, maybe I would benefit from some of that social interaction. You are wise to use discretion about what you share. Apparently some people do not.

I used not to tell anything in facebook. I still no trust to any social media. I still keep my life private and I don't used my real name. I usually comment on others status and I don't write negative comments.

I do not put alot on Facebook either. Some people put way too much information on there. Some of it makes me sick.

Hi. Sorry, I'm a little lost and really have no idea how things are going on in your life as I have just came back and so I'm outdated. Still, I hope that you get over whatever it is that's seems to be bothering you. Well, I seldom post things on Facebook, and if I do, I usually just blurt out thoughts of joy or anger that I would be feeling at that moment. I cannot think of something I couldn't share on Facebook as long as it doesn't involve Cursing religion/God, and any other private/intimate things.

To be honest i hardly use facebook any more, i think that there are far to many people that go on there to see what other people are doing as well as the things that they are saying.I find that a lot of people tend to not go on face book any more, as it is more trouble than it is worth.I would not share things that are going on in my life on there, as there are lots of people that would tend to add what they think is going on when they see other people that are not on there.

I only share the "good stuff" on Facebook. I don't like to read all the negative stuff from other friends (and some of them really do that too much) - so I don't want anyone to be of any burden to anyone on Facebook like that. I write funny things my kids do or say, places we went to, my kids pictures . . . but I don't write any "issues" I have with anyone or anything - no need to go there. I can share my most deepest, private things in person with those whom I know will listen and give me feedback - so I don't need to share it with Facebook friends or the world.

There are a lot that people really should in fact not share on Facebook. I'm not on Facebook anymore, but when I was on there, I tended to not share anything that was rather too personal. It was rather awkward to see a lot of people really drag their personal disputes out on the Internet, and that reflects bad on everyone. There are some things that should remain, you know, private. Yeah, I tended to be more of a lurker but even if I was an active user, I would think rather twice about what I posted, whether or not it would be something that I really did want broadcasted all over the Internet, for the entire world to see. Many times, it is likely not a good idea to put these things out on the Internet, but yet people put out their personal problems for the world to see.

I have a facebook account and the majority of my fb friends are family members, relatives and very close friends that I'm unable to meet very often but would like to keep in touch with. I try not to share every little things that happen in my life. Lately, I've become less fb-ing because a lot of time people like to gossip behind your back when they know something about you, good or bad. So, be careful when you're in fb. I don't believe they really mean what they say when they (Fb) say our information is safely guarded, that they won't pass our details to anyone. Do you?

Idon't think it is wise to share too much on Facebook...I don't know why some people have to share every little thing in life, Maybe they just don't realize just how far their comments are reaching...

I don't share personal information on facebook, and I don't comment on personal things or situations. I have friends there but I also have some of my previous professors from the uni and people that I only want them to see me as a serious person! I only post some photos occasionally from places that I visit and general comments that are not very personal. Generally, I have noticed that people post everything on fb, I think it's fun watching this kind of comments, but I could never post my phone number on my fb profile when I am organising a party for example. Some of my friends have done this, I would prefer to create a private event and share it there. It depends on the individual, if you feel like posting it, do it to see what comments you are going to get!
