what do you think about my question? some people use this kind of sites to express themselves and say whatever they feel on the moment, happiness, sadness, bad feelings, trouble situations. but would be okay if somebody expose all of this in sites like facebook, mylot, or social pages? I know different opinions that came from my friends, some of them said that is the worst you can do, is like you ask for pity, but on the other hand, sometimes is the only way we find to go ahead and express ourselves, some people has the facility to express themselves talking,others writing, and this stuff. what do you think? would be an advantage or a disadvantage?
Have a nice day

I feel its okay to express yourself on a social networking site as long as you are not spreading hatred. If one is in depression or sadness or going through tough times, he/ she can gather strength to overcome the difficulties with wise advices from friends and others. One can make friends with like minded people who have the same opinion too. And for the ones who lend a piece of advice, they can be happy that they are helping someone overcome the difficulties.

It is okay to express and share feelings. It is welcomed here as many of other mylotters are doing. However, too much of these feelings will make you look a bit odd. Odd... hmmm don't get me wrong. Too much information about your love problems will make you look like desperate and hopeless romantic, too much information about your love status like you are so happy with this person, and so on.. and you keep on posting or discussing about this person will make you look fanatic. Too much information about how you hate your mother, will make you look ungrateful child, and you obviously did have happy childhood at all. and so on.
Sometimes, it is too tiring to read discussion of same nature coming from one discussion author. Over and over and over and over again.... Redundantly discussing on matters about same issues.
Some discussion authors appear to script writers of soap operas, for the misfortune of their lives posted as discussion.
However, these are people's feelings and yes, this is free site of expression.
Now, it is on you if you want to spill everything here.

You have the right to express and share your feelings here unless your not posting anything which is discriminate someone here. Under the rule here no one allow to discriminate any color, nationalities, culture and any bad comments which hurt the feelings of others.

Are you here for the first time? Or do you never read a discussion started? Since otherwise you would know that most people are just doing that. Nice day to you too.

I think some people use sites like this as a journal as I do for Gather, but this site is a bit harder on how you can post things because of their rules.

hi alilin, i think its an advantage, right now i had just finish writing abt myself. yes of course many will disagree that its worst, but if like me i be able to open up here at least to ease some burden i guess its not... different people had diff opinion.its my way to asks advance if i cant tell my problem to my relatives, atleast i be able to pick some advice but ofcorse the decision will still be yours.sometimes its best to achieve a good advice/ listening ear to strangers...that soon eventually be your friend.

hi gilenie how are you? I agree with you, I feel that open up ourselves we can feel better and sometimes get advices by people around us, speccially from strangers, they can see the situations with another point of view, without feelings, just a comment, is your decision to take it or leave it. have a nice day and thanks for reply

Hi!
Many of the lotters use this platform to vent out and express their feelings. I think there is nothing wrong in it and it is one of the best forums to share our feelings and get some advice.
I am here for many years and I have learnt a lot. Had I been not on this site, I might have missed some of the important things in my life.

You are welcome here to write a story and express the feeling about your story. You can write a personal, family and friend problem. Mylot members will find more opinions about what you discuss.
Most of them feel emotions and feel seek. We are free to share everything here in Mylot.

Thats why mylot is here, so we can say what we like and sound off if we have a bad day.
Good thing also is we can rant, then forget it and not have friends keep bringing it up when we want to forget we had a rant about something.
Its good here as you can be yourself and come here what ever your mood, what ever time you like as mylot is open 24/7 365 days a year

I will say it is OK to use mylot to express and share your feeling. Vast majority of Mylotters are good and harmless people, they are not going to hurt or harm you in anyway whatsoever. Many of them are here to provide you with view and advices if necessary, just go ahead express and share; nothing in here for you to worry at all, it is an all right and pure fun website fro everyone, you can mylotting every day and will still be OK and FINE!!

I know. Majority of us here express our own experiences in life. I have my limitations though. I do not totally divulge my whole life here. This is a public place and sometimes we just don't know some of these people could be your neighbor or your friend. I can understand people who freely express themselves on here, even exposing their own dirty laundry but I don't do that.

I not share my feeling or happiness in any other sites other than mylot and in mylot also share limited feelings. Because we cant share every feeling in mylot after all this is public place hahha...just kidding. I started mostly my funny experience or news related discussions and only in mylot no other sites.

For me, it's an advantage. It's like an outlet of what you feel especially if you don't really have someone to talk to. Just have to be careful of what you say, like don't mention names if it's about your enemy.

Hi aililin, totally it is okay to use mylot to express and share your feelings but i am not sure if it is worth it to do it on other site. Point one, here Mylot members are very open and kind and genuine at times. Sometimes by expressing yourself here you would feel relief and it is also good not to bottled up inside you or putting things under the carpet. Don't listen to others who thinks that just because they did not do it they are right. Please do express yourself here and you will be suprise that you are not alone to face the situation and sometimes what you are thinking were being posted by others before you do.

Sharing opinions with others is best thing i say. Expressing their feelings in some social network sites like facebook etc is not a bad thing to say. Because every human being is advised not to keep their inner ideas, feelings for a long time i say. Our feelings are to be expressed freely to others. We can't say exactly where we can get a good and unique resolution for our crisis. Eventually i can say you that there is no bother about sharing feelings via social network sites at all. Be relax and get good suggestions from others always! You will be very happy while you get quick response from others for your request!
