Why is it that it feels so much easier to open up to a complete stranger about those deep concerns that often lurk in the darkest corners of the heart than to express them to family, friends or the boyfriend?

The people closest to you don't want to worry about you, but the strangers won't worry because your not their kin. as soon as you walk away they will forget you as quickly as you have forgotten them.

If you tell those who you should tell then everything feels dreadfully real and could never be fully erased, but tell a stranger and you can wipe the slate clean as if nothing was ever said.. Your no longer holding inside inescapable thoughts, instead you feel a little bit of peace and perhaps even a bit hungry..
