Sharing is caring. ?

I have shared a freakin lot. Not everything. Some things I will never ever speak on here about. One thing I definitely should not have spoken about, bit me in the ass and was really painful to have nitpicked. Most things I'm not sensitive about and those things I am very very honest about. Generally I'm glad I've shared what I've shared, even if I knew it wasn't something everyone would understand. A few times I've had people message me and thank me for sharing, because they didn't think anyone else felt like they did or had been through something similar. If sharing my experience can be helpful or encouraging for others, then I'm going to share. But I have learned to not share anything while I'm emotional because A. I overshare when I'm emotional and B. Some things I know I can't handle being nitpicked and if I mention one of those things it can be very painful and often times confusing for others to understand.

I try not too because BB ladies remember everything... I don't see the problem with being detailed about your life though. It's not like it's fb. Most of us are strangers lol.

Soooo...none of ya'll want to see my mucous pics? Sharing is caring lol

I rarely share anything about me. For all you know I'm just a 35 year old man-child still living with his grandma that gets his rocks off seeing pregnant belly pics in skimpy underwear, dirty mirrors, and even messier backgrounds.

I'm just kidding ( or am I ?)! I like the anonymity of this app. I like knowing I'm not alone in this wondrous journey of cravings, hormonal outburst, giving birth with all your goodies in view for everyone to gawk at, zombie mode from lack of sleep, getting peed and pooped on, and then pregnant again.

It's funny because I don't have Facebook twitter or have people added to snapchat (I have snap but use it only as a camera filter)

I have Instagram but don't post or like talk with people .

I share a lot on here as if it's not real people and a few ones there's people from my city , and that for sure know people I know and It serves as a reminder .

That's also why I delete many of the posts I make .

I'm generally a very open person when it comes to my self but not so much when it comes to the rest of my family

Bb is the preggos version of fb ?

Depends, I've probably shared more than some people would feel comfortable but definitely not as much as others. I'm somewhere in the middle I do believe some people over share but that's what makes this app entertaining.

Not normal for me

I will say anything and everything on this app. But never anything personally identifying. My name and photo are not attached ?

I'm ok with sharing personal information here. It's kinda my place to really air it all. This app helped me through a rough patch in my life. I don't like the idea of someone putting two and two together in my real life which is why I don't share real facts.

If ppl didn't talk about their personal dilemmas it wouldn't make this app interesting sometimes I read this stuff and think WOW my life is pretty great. I probably shouldn't complain about the little stuff anymore ??‍♀️

I don't share personal things that have to do with my relationship or finances but I certainly wouldn't judge others for sharing. Sometimes they don't have anyone else to talk to or need unbiased advice.

I would NEVER post personal issues on any social media app.

Shid I hardly talk to my own family about my issues. Either I keep it to myself or talk to SO and that's it.

I love reading people's personal private manners. Some have helped me in my life. Some make me feel very blessed for everything I have. This is an anything goes forum and that's what I love about it.

Lol @irisdiaz

Op no. It helps me vent. I also like giving my opinion/advice. Some people have no one else to turn to.

I personally don't like to put my personal business out there but I don't judge those who do, everyone copes with things differently and if they don't care then I don't either. But I am a private person and like to keep most things to myself.

I talked about our financial struggles. It was incredibly helpful. I didn't know anyone in Utah when we were suddenly going to move there because this is where my husband found a job. I reached out on here and one BBer actually helped me pick a location to move to and met up with me at a park right after I got here. I will be forever grateful!

I can't afford a therapist so I vent to them and 9 times out of 10 I go to bed crazier than I woke up ?

I get that it helps to get it out. But a public forum or social media is a crazy way to do it.

I'm mostly wondering about financial struggles and fighting with spouse. Idk about y'all but I don't feel like it's anyone's business. And could possibly make the situation worse.

People have different comfort zones. What you may consider personal, another may not.

I've shared my very personal experiences as a way to help others through similar situations. I don't think there's anything wrong with it as long as I understand the risks I'm taking by doing it. I know there are times I will be criticized for what I put out there.

For some people, it is. Others aren't as comfortable. Some ladies on here might feel comfortable sharing because there is a sense of anonymity among the community and they feel okay coming here for advice. Sometimes they might not have anyone in their offline life that they feel okay sharing these things with!

Like what kinds of things?

Why not? If they want to, and they can take what comes with it, then let them.

Talking about issues really helps.

You mean you don't care what my vagina looks like or that I queefed last night?

ETA: I rarely share anything personal on here. I'm very private.
