@socialmediabullies I didn’t have this problem until recently – and all of a sudden, my shared videos from Youtube (in private messages) were showing up “blank” to my friends inbox. Meaning they didn’t get the video or whatever. I found somewhere that facebook can limit your shares if you go over a limit – this I believe could be the issue – however there is no facebook forum, outside your friend network, to discuss like you’ve just done, specifically speaking.
@ouluvme2, I just tried to “share” the video to my Facebook and chose the “private message” option. The video + link + its description shows up. Facebook allows me to put in the name of the person I want to send the video too and leave a msg.
I’ve noticed when I want to “share” links in a private message that it doesn’t show up. THAT my friend is a Facebook issue. So, for now, keep the link available in the outgoing messages you send on Facebook.
Every time i send or share rather – videos from Youtube or links from websites to facebook – in private message form – the video or link is not showing up in the message to my friends – just a blank message! Please help!

All you have to do is send a message on FB, like normal. Click on the paperclip to attach your picture.
