In life we suffer problems. We are able to pass through some difficulties! What if you suffer a problem, will you share it to your family or to your friend or to your fiance or will you pretend to be stronger and just keep it alone and don't bother other people? What's your choice?

yes if there is life, there is problem.. since life is accompanied with problem. But there is no problem too big that God cannot solve it. and if there's a problem theres always a solution. My choice would be, i would rather cry than pretending to be stronger since through crying you can release the pain that your heart is carrying. through crying also could also ease your heartache. It is better also to share your problems with your family, friends and fiance so that they could give you advice/opinions/suggestions. They could also help you on what you're going to do.

You must be comfortable telling your boyfriend than you family. Sometimes,we do really do that, even me to my girlfriend.

I prefer to suffer in silence. I don't know, I guess that's just the way I am. I would cry myself at night but would smile the next day and show to the world that I'm perfectly fine. Although there are a few tell-tale signs (the dark circles under my eyes) lol. But when my family or friends ask me if I'm okay, I'd usually answer yes. The only time I break down is when the problem is too heavy for me to carry anymore... That's when I approach my loved ones for help.

Sometimes there are really problems that we can carry on ouselves and there are that we nee dto share. We should be able to determine it to not bother anyone and of course ask help at the right time.

I always share my problems not because I need help but because I just want to blurt it out. Talking about it with someone I trust really helps to release the pressure I feel regarding the problem. The first thing I usually do when I have problems is look for solutions and try to find people who can help me. I pray and talk to God like as if He is just right beside me. Ofcourse often when the solution I thought seems to not solve the problem I cry and then after that I find other ways.I may cry or share my problem with other people but what I am sure of is that I will never give up until the problem is solved.

You have a god idea of sharing your problem to release the tension sometimes do it but most often I hide it to other people and pretend to be stronger.

If i would suffer a problem, first of all i will try to cool down and rethink on the problem. If it is really a serious one i will take advise from my near and dear ones that how to overcome and try to be stronger and stronger so my loved ones will not become sad. If it still goes on I would share it with my family and find out the way to overcome from the problem.

It's ok if you can carry the problems by yourself! Be strong! You are not bothering anyone!

i would like to keep it alone and would pretend to be stronger. i would like to find out the way, by myself only, to overcome the problem. when the problem is too much serious and it is not possible for me to find out the way i would like to cry lonely and then like to go ahead leaving all the things behind by thinking that thats the life.

when I am alone, of course, I will have to let out that big "E", and crying is my best outlet. But when I am with people, I often pretend that I am not affected.
