Do you feel more comfortable expressing your emotions on social media platforms compared to face-to-face interactions?

Certain people, especially those who are shy and introverted, show greater confidence in expressing their emotions on social media compared to face-to-face interactions. They feel courageous sharing their feelings/emptions online, as they expect not receiving instant reactions. However, it is indispensable to exercise caution when sharing personal information online, as there is a higher chance that it can be misused by others. What are your thoughts on this?

I don't express my emotion on social media like Facebook. I have to protect my privacy and personal life. Not all will sympathise your feelings. Don't put yourself to shame. Facebook users may not understand you and mock you, instead

There are many people who feel more comfortable talking online than face to face. Especially those who are not loud or shy. They know that no one will laugh at them or discourage them. For them, it is easier to write than to speak.

But it is also very important to be careful. Once you post your feelings or personal things, you do not know who will see them. There are bad people out there who can use that information for bad purposes. Not everyone online is trustworthy even if they seem cool.

I think it is cool to talk online but don't forget to set boundaries. Protect yourself first before opening up. Don't trust everyone and don't put everything you have out there. That is local wisdom.
