Why does everybody always insist on people "sharing" their feelings with others?
There seems to be a lot more dignity in keeping certain things to yourself. Everytime I've ever really told someone how I felt or something important from my past or whatever, I didn't feel better, I just felt embarrased or even ashamed.
There's something very noble about not burdening others with your problems.

You a Stoic are you? Marcus Aurelius "Get rid of the judgement ... get rid of the 'I am hurt,' you are rid of the hurt itself." ... "Nothing happens to any man which he is not formed by nature to bear."
I think the origins of the philosophy date back to Zeno in the 90s. The 290s.

yeah, sure, exposing yourself puts you in a state where you're open to blows, but that just makes not receiving the blow (or rather receiving the thing you were hoping for) have a larger impact than it would otherwise. sometimes you have to risk to gain or whatever.

According to some medical research or other men only share their problems as a last resort, when they really desperately need help. Women are more inclined to share their problems straight away, before exhausting their own ability to deal with it. They reckon the higher male rate of suicide may be at least partly due to this.
I agree there is something noble (and distinctly old school) about not banging on about every little problem you have. It's called Stoicism and it's something I admire.

As with anything, it depends on the situation. There are times for keeping feelings in and times for letting them out. And as was already said, for certain things you aren't going to get very far if you keep all your feelings inside and stuff, like relationships, etc. Sometimes you need to take risks to get anything worthwhile.
