I think some people do that because they're seeking those who can relate & support There are online groups for all sorts of topics, so I hope that they'd find one that would fit with their circumstances. The personal things I share are primarily about my volunteering. Especially the kitties needing adopting. Other than that, I only share exciting or somber news. The important things. I'm not going to discuss the daily minutiae of my life. I don't even do that with my bestie.
