I think of mylot when I want to talk openly

India

I come to mylot when I want to share something I can not share with my family or friends. For fear of judgmental, pointed fingers. Am I odd? I love the anonymity and hope none will recognise me ever. Or is that a false belief? Why do you mylot?

This is a very interesting post. For me, I speak to my God, Jehovah, in prayer. Not only is he gentle and understanding, he understands everything about circumstances - his perspective is always perfectly balanced. If I’m wrong about something, he provides loving guidance.

I must say you are a lucky person. I don't believe in or talk to God. I believe in saying "you saw what you reap"

@BellaEdward Did you ever believe in God? Did something change for you?

@sulynsi yes I used to be a believer. But then seeing the sufferings of people especially the small babies who becomes victims of abuses I started wondering if there is a god who is as powerful as I believed to be why he/she isn't doing anything? Why do they let criminals roam around freely? I could no longer believe in them.

Rightly said. You can say whatever you feel like. Here people don't judge and are supportive. I like to write and read different stuff so I am here. Have a good day. Take care

While it’s true, you can find support here, it’s been my experience that others can respond in an unfriendly way - which can make you feel ‘judged’. It’s wise to keep in mind that responses here are like anywhere else - just people and their opinions.

I come to mylot to chat and share with my international friends, whom I have never met, on matters pertaining to daily happenings along with special ones. I feel happy about it.

You got yourself a couple of international friends? That is so great. It will definitely help to see things from a wide range of views

You're absolutely right there. Often I myLot to express my upsettedness with society. I'm obviously AGAINST the anonymity idea---because it lulls you into a false sense of confidence (you start thinking 'you can do whatever you want, and no one will know it was you'; but there are ways that ANYBODY could find out who you are if they really wanted to).

@BellaEdward Sorta. More like 'Don't post anything you don't want certain people to see.' Maybe you have some extra precautions so your identity isn't connected to your myLot account, but "better safe than sorry."

Yes there are things which we cannot share with anyone. In that case we can discuss those things with the virtual friends as no one knows us personally here
