Discussing feelings can be advantageous because it allows us to explain to people how we're feeling and what made us feel that way. Feelings, however, shoould sometimes be left private..... the necessity of sharing feelings can be detrimental to maturity..... learning to figure some things out on your own. At other times, sharing feelings can cause resentment, particularly if the feelings being shared are negative.
