Yes, and sometimes when I do talk to a "so-called" friend(s) about it, I almost regret it afterwards, because it becomes central to how they see you, i.e., pretty much a victim, and it kind of automatically puts you in that victim role. When they see you it's the first thing that comes out of their mouth, like it's intriguing. Goes something like- So are you still with your boyfriend? (Implying that you are hopeless and you should dump him). It's almost as if they are just waiting for the next juicy scoop...and sometimes you just want to forget about your problem, and you don't want to be reminded everytime you see that friend. So there are many reasons as to why anyone would prefer discussing it online.
I learned to trust myself more, and rely less to what people say, because no one know me better than me and my situation better than me. If I am misguided by my own thinking then it's a lesson for me and it makes me feel great to believe in my and trust my decisions.

I think women who are going through these kind of problems are warriors, eventhough that's the last thing they think of themselves to be...

...and Hope is what keeps us going.
