It depends on the settings of the platform you're using. Some social media platforms allow you to control who can see your story, and you can choose to limit it to only close friends.
On some platforms, by default, non - close friends may be able to see your story. For instance, on Snapchat, if you haven't adjusted your story settings, your story could be visible to a wide range of people including those who are not your close friends. But usually, there are privacy controls available. You can often go into the settings and customize who can view your story. This might include options like 'only my best friends', 'friends except...', or 'custom'. If you select a more restrictive option that excludes non - close friends, then they won't be able to see it.
No, usually only your close friends can see your story. It's a privacy setting that keeps it limited to those you have a closer connection with.
Maybe your privacy settings are set wrong. Check if you've accidentally restricted access for them.

On Facebook, if you set your story privacy to 'public', non - close friends can see it. But if you set it to 'friends only' or a more restricted group like 'close friends only', they won't.
Yes, you have the right to decide that. Sharing with close friends can provide a sense of security and understanding. They are likely to be more supportive and keep your confidences.
Maybe your sharing settings are set that way by mistake. Check your privacy settings and see if you can change them.
On most platforms, if the setting is for only close friends to see the story, then that's how it works. But sometimes, there can be glitches. For example, on Instagram, if there's a problem with the app's cache or a temporary server issue, it might show the story to someone who isn't on the close friends list. However, these are rare occurrences.
It could be a technical glitch with the app or platform you're using. Try refreshing or reinstalling it. Also, check if your internet connection is stable.
It depends on your privacy settings. If you haven't restricted it, typically all your close friends can view the story. But if you've customized the settings, only those within the specific criteria you set can see it.
