I read that as Shave your problems.
But i tend to share them if i know i cant handle them myself.

I clicked no. I mean, it'd depend who it was I'd be talking to about my problems as I tend to generally keep to myself.
I have about two people I talk to properly.

I used to, when I had someone to share them with. I rarely share my problems with my other friends, which is probably a bad idea as I know they're there for me, but I'm scared they wont care or be able to help.
I'm really close to them, and I've known many of them since I was 4, but for some reason I cant bring myself to confide in them about anything majorly problematic for me. I gues maybe I prefer to wallow in my own misery.
Silly and stupid really, cos when I do share the load and tell people my problems I feel much better off.
I occasionally confide in people when I'm drunk, but I rarely remember what I say, and nor do they so it's pretty pointless really. Just one of those things.

Your avatar made that post 10x more awesome.vaderaider said:
I only really share medical problems, and only with my parents. I don't have a lot of problems worth sharing, anyways
I tend to be fairly inconsistent about it. Some times I say too much, while others I don't say anything at all.
Who do I share them with? The unlucky bastard who happens to be in my direct vicinity. Not the internet, the internet doesn't have much compassion.

I do not.
And I feel exactly the same way that you do. For some reason, I don't feel it necessary to bog or damper another person's day with my problems.
Ironically, I love it when people share their problems with me.

No I don't. I got the tendency to keep everything bottled up and I only really talk about it to close friends from school. Even then, most of the time they aren't of real help.
If its something practical like school or work, then yes I usually share my problems..
Otherwise, if its a emotional or relationship problem, I usually try to solve it or forget about it.

=O You are like me! Exactly like me! Maybe for different reasons, but !!!Disaster Button said:
I like listening to other people's problems, and I like trying to help solve them if I can. I used to be good at doing the "sympathetic ear" thing too, but now I just get impatient because so many of my friends have gone off and done the "muhhh, I'm going to kill myself only not!" thing.
The problem is that I have a terrible speech impediment. I have, consequently, become a bad storyteller, so if I were to list off my problems, it would be extremely boring, and I don't want to subject my friends to that crap (especially since it's often very abstract, like being obsessed with comparing myself to the underground man from Dostoevsky's Notes from Underground).
And yes, another problem is that I feel I should be able to deal with it on my own. =/ But if that were the case, why am I not okay?
Another another problem is that I'm worried what they'll think of me. Here, it's okay for me to say what I like because I'm no one. But I care what my friends think of me.

No I don't. In my experience friends very rarely stick around and the friends from my childhood live in New York, so when I see them, I focus on having fun and so I don't share problems with them. Not to mention that from the few times I have ever told a friend a problem, they just attempt to placate me with meaningless platitudes which I can do without. I just like sorting things out on my own, it doesn't always work, but at least I feel that I haven't dragged anyone down with me.
