This is often the result of partners who don't listen or don't care. My ex was rarely open to listening to me vent about whatever. And he sure as heck didn't want to hear me vent about what really stressed me out the most.... HIM! So where else could I turn but to online communities?
Plus our partners aren't always available, when we have access to the internet virtually all day long. We can get things off our chest a lot quicker by posting online sometimes. Then by the time we are with our spouse, we already feel better, so there's no need to vent more.
