Do you have that one confidante in the real world with whom you can share everything without filtering?

I wish I did BUT I HAVE NO ONE. How many of you’ll feel the same way?
I think you are just afraid to open up.

Not in the real world. I've had several online/phone confidantes over the years, but never complete confidantes. To keep a friend comfortable, something always needs to be filtered out of conversations. And this varies with each person. What I confide to one friend, I may not confide to another, since it conflicts with their specific comfort zone or they are just not interested. Bottom line is that I show different sides of myself to different friends, when I have them. It would be nice to have one all inclusive confidante, that I can tell everything to, but I've never had that.

That is what I meant - one confidante with whom you can tell it all. Be your complete, unfiltered self @FrozenGuy

Nope. Its a nice idea. I stick to online, anonymous and less chance of people using it against you.

Oh yeah - people using it against you. That’s the worst anyone can do @ButterRobot

Do you have a dog or another type of pet? They're the best for that sort of thing.

I've never had anyone either although there's someone who could become that person

No. I filter even with my BFF

In real life it's very difficult for sure. People judge you for everything I think places like SW or online friends are best to share things as they don't judge you.
I’ve never felt the need to share everything. But I do have a friend whom I trust enough that if I ever did, I could.
