Well, if they go here often enough to see this thread, then I'm sure they read the comments, too. :)

Stealth hugs?

Ha! Stealth hugs are the best thing in the world!

I like the idea. I saw the site on the WGN News this morning, and wanted to post it, but I wasn't sure if the mods would approve. It's a really cool idea, and as soon as I think of a good enough secret, I'll send it.

Another update, and quite an emotional one. Makes you think, doesn't it? Any one of us could have our secrets up there. It just makes me stop and think before judging someone too harshly.

Yeah, that's very true. I'm really glad you decided to do this.

And also- I look at some of these- and then I think why am I complaining? People go through things that I could never dream of- it just puts things into perspective.

I think that, too. But even the secrets that aren't as harsh as the others are still fascinating to read. I feel so connected to these people. Many of those secrets are secrets I keep, too.

I feel the same way. I don't know who the people are, but I feel very close to them...I understand them. Maybe this is just the first step for all of us to be closer as a community.

I was hoping this would give people a stronger sense of community. We're not as different as we think.

Question, is there anyway we can see what e-mails and AIM names go with what secret? There's a secret that I'd like to talk about with that person if they gave a way to contact them, cause I'm going through the same thing...

I'll e-mail the person in question and if they say yes, I'll send you their anonymous e-mail. PM me about the secret you have in mind.

"I have to leave the room when something embarassing happens to a person in a TV show or movie. I can't watch. I get embarassed for them."

I can relate.....

Some of these things I can say without being ashamed of them.

I was so surprised by that one! I plug my fingers in my ears and don't look, but mostly I just run to the bathroom until it's over.

Haha. XD I do the same thing.

I would also like to publicly announce that I get overemotional when I'm watching something sad on TV... I'm sure I don't have to go into further detail. :o Go me!
