Would you tell your problems to family or friend?

Though i know my family's there to help me in times of difficulties, just like you i easily confide to my closest friend. Maybe because my friends are my same age and they can easily relate to me as compared to my parents who i think will have difficulty relating to me. Its maybe because of the gap between me and my parents.

I have a coyple of really good friends I can confide in gut I never tell my family anything if I can avoid it, most of them except my dad and step-mum I'm ashamed to know anyway.

Well find it easier to talk to my Friend, as you say Families just judge and don't really help much at all, my Son and Daughter do as we are always there for each other but when it comes to other Familie Members they really do not help cause next thing you know you hear about their Problem instead. So forgotten is yours and you try to help them which was not the Idea.

hi Iconsider friend are more important than relatives as in my lifemy friends are close to me very much

well, i think that your family members should be your friends too. You can be sure that they want the best and only the best for you! And even if you think that they won't understand you, be sure that they will! But of course, that doesnt mean you don't have to have any other friends except your family! I mean that if you have a major problem you should always count on your family!

I tell ym husband EVERYTHING. Even if the problem is HIM (best way to solve it is to talk to him about it) Other than that, I don't talk to the rest of my family. So I go to my friends, for sure. They know me best and understand my situation and point of view better than anyone in my family ever could.

Yes if I got a problem I will go to family or my best friend for advice.

i will tell my friend

For me ,i often tell my problems or trouble to my friends for more,as they all understand my matters more than my family. i always talk about our matters and troubles togather with my friends ,and do not often tell them to my family,on side,i do not want them to be worried me ,another hands,i believe there is a gap between us ,and they maybe can not understand my thoughts.so i think i will tell them to my friends when i have problems .

I would tell both of them friends and family. The reason is my family is a really very supporting. They would always co-operate with me whenther I am in hell or heaven. And friend because friends are for that purpose only You alwasy look towards to your friends when in need or in trouble.

I find it easier to tell things to friends rather than family. It just feels strange trying to tell things to family members. I gave up on that a long time ago. I feel they have some preconcieved notion of how I'm supposed to be and what I'm supposed to do and feel so I'd rather not bother with telling them things.

i would prefer to confide in my family because i know that they would help me and they don't want bad things to happen to me . the real friends usually don't want to happen bad things to me but never say never. so in conclusion better confide in your family if they are good listeners

I agree. Alot of people find it easy to talk about their problems to friends other then family. The reason for this might be that they feel more confortable talking with someone who probably shares the same kind of problems.

usually i go to my friend because i know she understands me and she also gives me advices :)

I share my problems or discuss solutions with my parents. They are the only people who stand with me and help me make a decision. They are more experienced and have been through a lot of situations in life and know what will be the right thing to do. With friends, I find that they can only advise, they cannot be persuasive. Its my parents who can be persuasive. And even if something goes wrong whether I do what they have told me or my own, they slways stand with me and give me strength to face the situation.

i always share my pain & joy with my some close friends because they really care for me.so when i really get upset then i talk with my close friends it helps me to get rid of my problems which i cant do with my family member .

I would definitely not talk about my problems with family or friend. Most of my problems are trust issues from growing up in abusive foster homes so you couldn't pry anything out of me if you are family or my best friend. I know in my mind that they may be able to help me with a lot of baggage but my heart says keep your mouth shut. So I will just hold it all inside until I explode or die which ever comes first. :)

I think it depends on a given situation Coz there are some things that is easier to tell your friends And there are some things that is easier to confide in with your family Like for example if it is family problems, i'll go and confide it with my friends because i want to see our situation through the points of view of other people someone who could understand both our sides.

Will share with a friend. cos i share it with my family members, they get worried and tensed, and i don't want them to be worried. If its some thing i should do, sharing with family members may worsen the situation, while a friend helps to come out. But i would be nice if parents are best friends and can share any thing with them Very few parents have such kind of attitude.

i would prefer to tell mostly to my fnd bcoz their used to be some thing which cannot be brought in the view of parents and ofcourse their is a proverb friend in a need a frnd should be in deed
