Why do we confess our views, acts or secrets to someone else. Have you ever confessed to a stranger?

nope. i never confess to a stranger. usually i confess to my parents, brothers and my boyfriend. confessing helps me get out of my box a little. express myself and get views also from the people i talked about stuffs with.

Confessions are secret. What good will it make to share your secret with known people. Its not a secret any more.

i confess - confession
I will never confess to a stranger. I only confess to my parents, siblings and to my boyfriend. I sometimes confess to my close friends.
