50 Anonymously Shared Secrets That People Wouldn’t Dare To Confess In Real Life (New Posts)
Disclosing our secrets reduces stress and helps us come to terms with our behavior. So the fact that some of the most powerful people or institutions in many cultures encourage people to admit their transgressions is no coincidence. Nor is the huge number of followers behind the Twitter account 'Fesshole.'
It enables people to anonymously confess "their sins" and countless have already turned to it for a shot at internet absolution. So let's see if we can give them exactly that, shall we?
We at Bored Panda compiled some of the wildest submissions 'Fesshole' has recently received, so put on your confessor hat (or pick up a scepter, whatever works for you), and continue scrolling to check out what some evil-doers have been up to.
For more, click on our older publications on 'Fesshole' here and here.

You possibly feel stupid, (you’re not!), because you are struggling to move on. Fact is that grief isn’t an event; it is a chronic situation that will stay with you. How you cope with that is very individual so keep logging on.

My son passed away last year. I still call his number and I've downloaded the ringtone that I used for his number. Beyond that, know that I know. We're a silent army but we find each other in so many places. Broken, shattered hearts. We find each other. Along the journey of sorts we meet angels that help us along. Maybe just by making something easier when we need it. And we see signs that our child is not far away. I know one day my son will reach his hand out to me and say, "Come on Mom, you can stop crying now."

... put a cat down, just because you move? Seriously, I hope this sad excuse of an attempt to be a halfway human POS never had any fun in its life again. Fück these people, whatever treats some sentient living being, who likely loved that thing, like that doesn't deserve its feelings to be taken into account anywhere, and if, then only to make sure it hasn't any chance to have fun.
In The Secret Life of Secrets, Dr. Michael Slepian, the Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. Associate Professor of Leadership and Ethics at Columbia Business School, explained that we can draw a line between secrecy and privacy by considering secrecy as an intention to hold specific information back, and privacy as a reflection of how much we broadcast personal information, in general.
Generally, people who are more private require closeness before they let you in. Yet those who are less private may be happy to disclose personal information, not just to friends and family, but to coworkers, acquaintances, and even people they’ve just met as well.
You may not want to discuss your sexual experiences at work out of concern for privacy (and for what is appropriate), however, this is very different from wanting to keep some specific experience a secret. In both cases, you are taking control of your personal information, but for different reasons.
"Aside from sex, money is another example of something you may not talk about but may not be intentionally keeping secret," Slepian wrote. "You might not talk about your paycheck out of concern for privacy, rather than wanting nobody to ever know what it looks like."
"At the same time, there may be other specifics you intend to keep hidden, such as a particularly unwise financial decision. These examples help us see that privacy and secrecy can coexist, and there can be gray area in between. So, can we ever really separate them? Yes, and the person who knows best—whether something is private or secret—is you."

... and did you get yourself checked out? Because if your wife didn't even remotely recognize the smell (and yes, she knows the normal smell), there might be something wrong with you, too.

Llama_flower93 3 years ago
Who cares if your dog is ugly. Dogs can be amazing and also ugly at the same time. You can't become a neighbourhood menace just because someone thought your dog was ugly.
During his research, Slepian discovered that the more immoral we consider a personal experience or action, the more it feels like a secret, rather than something that is merely private.
He also found that the more we think others would find the information relevant to their own lives, the more something unsaid feels like secrecy instead of privacy.

Aw, I get why you did this. My mum died 13 years ago and my dad this year. I miss them both terribly every.single.day.
He learned this from a study involving 1,000 participants in committed relationships. "I asked the participants to think about something they had not disclosed to their romantic partner," the psychologist said.
"This was easy for them to do. We all have many such things, ranging from the consequential to the mundane. Some of the things people hadn't disclosed were acts they considered highly immoral, like cheating on their partner and misrepresenting their past. The participants said that these felt very much like secrets. But other things did not seem immoral. For example, one participant told me he quite enjoys having the apartment to himself, and doesn’t mind when his partner is away for the weekend. In fact, it makes him quite happy."
"Another participant told me that her partner doesn’t know how much she spends on yarn. These things didn’t feel like they mattered all that much, and so not mentioning them didn’t feel like keeping secrets," Slepian noted.

a lot of times my to do list is things I have done. instead of a never ending list of demands... I am faced with a list of satisfaction ( and I can see I have actually accomplished a lot)
Slepian said people are often wondering if they're more secretive than the average person.
"When we start talking about tendencies for secrecy, we bump right up into personality psychology," he said. "A common way of measuring personality is to ask about five broad traits: Openness (open to new experiences and to things being complicated), Conscientiousness (organized, disciplined), Extraversion (enthusiastic, social), Agreeableness (polite, eager to please), and Neuroticism (the less polite word for high negative emotion; many prefer to call this “low emotional stability” instead)."
(If you ever need to remember this information straight away just remember the acronym OCEAN.)

It would be seriously satisfying if someone filmed this. I'd email it to the prick everyday for as long as I needed to feel vindicated (or until the baastard had a mental breakdown - whichever came first).
"My research finds that someone who is more secretive (whether having had many experiences from the list or just a few) tends to be less extraverted and less emotionally stable, but more conscientious," Slepian said.
Additionally, the profile of a person more likely to get involved in the kinds of situations that people keep secret is that of someone who is open, extraverted, and emotionally stable, but less agreeable and less conscientious.

Agree. I had the same reaction when my son was diagnosed with autism. But yesterday, we were driving past a new development of houses near a pond. I pointed to it and asked him if he knew why it was a bad idea to build houses so close to a pond and he responded with "Tidal waves?" We laughed for about ten minutes before I said "mosquitos."

Very good! I had a non-stick pan that I was very protective of. My mother knew she couldn't use it, and never did. Then she had a friend stay over who offered to cook, and used My Pan, and utterly ruined it. She didn't even offer to buy a new one because in her mind it was still good. My mom got me a new pan, but I'm still hurt.

My niece is obsessed with the kid's YouTube channel called "A for Adley". I admit it's a pretty wholesome family channel, but it doesn't change the fact that it gets pretty annoying very quickly. My SIL told me, whenever I'm babysitting her and she starts binging that channel, I can just go into her bedroom and read. It's much more peaceful than hearing "THE FLOOR IS LAVA!!!" every 5 GD minutes. Don't worry, guys, I put a stop to the screen time after a while and we do something more interactive. But when it's on, the goddamn floor is goddamn lava again.

And you don't think that could still happen just with two women? Does the housewife dynamic only exist for heterosexual relationships? I doubt it, you can still be a homebody and still be a stay at home mother in a gay relationship so how is marriage to a woman going to make any difference? If that's your nature or your choice, how is who you are married to going to affect that? Do you imagine that all lesbian marriages look like two gals living their best life going out the whole time and bein child free? Some do and some straight marriages do but some marriages both gay and straight look more traditional..

Just... work something out between you. An open and honest relationship will make your marriage SO much healthier. If there's something you want to buy but don't have enough pocket money to, talk to your wife and figure out how you can settle this. But don't HIDE that from her; that's just going to make things worse. (This is my opinion, you don't have to agree with it)

I'm sorry but if you're in a relationship with a person whom you adoringly love this shouldn't be a problem. Sure it might effect you for a week or so, but go on a date, get dressed up, flirt. If something like this ruins your relationship then you will never have a close long term partner.

There are better ways of getting back at people than being petty and vindictive. Kill 'em with kindness, make a request, negotiate a solution, make them your friend (strategically), put a mention in to the higher-ups (in a constructive way), etc. Being petty and vindictive just keeps the negativity going, even when one feels justified.

My husband is a cancer survivor (50/50) and gets high anxiety at the mention of cancer. He hyperventilates and takes hours to calm down. It takes days for him to relax after his annual checkups. He's been in remission for 10 years and has two years before he's deemed cured. I was diagnosed with cervical cancer in late 2019 and had an emergency hysterectomy to remove it all. He thinks I had it done due to irregular bleeding and nothing more. Since I don't need chemo or radiation (just the occasional blood test) I've told no one. No need to make him stress over it.
