He was curious for about 2 minutes but doesn't even care. I write about him but nothing bad. I don't want people that I know to find my blog because I don't want them to think of me differently but I thought I should tell the person that I want to spend the rest of my life with. I showed him the website, he read it for a minute and then got bored and moved on. I don't think you have much to worry about it you don't broadcast to the entire world your entire life.

Although I was about six months in before I ever did. Before that, there wasn't really anything worth reading anyway. I guess I had never really given thought to not telling my SO about my blog.

I think if you know me, you will figure it out. so many people i know blog, and it comes up in conversation, like, "hey i read on your blog..." so i think i would not have to tell the guy i was dating he would figure it out. honestly my blog is for me not for them. hmmm maybe this is why i do not have a man!??

You are right though, eventually you do have to tell. For me, the relationship would have to start to be getting serious before I told.

When my guy and I were still just friends, I found out he had a blog. I ended up spending hours reading it and his wit and writing skills magnified my crush on him. So it doesn't need to be a bad thing! He's the one who suggested that blogging may be a good fit, and is the only irl person who knows I blog. I’m a bit of a unique case.

Do I mind? No, but I can't be completely honest anymore about certain things; not things pertaining directly to him but about some of his friends or certain things about his family I don't quite understand. He'd probably be cool with me posting it, but I'm not entirely sure. He reads sporadically, rarely comments, so it works out okay. Frankly, as a girl, if you have a lot of thoughts/debating and etc about a girl, don't share it with us. Unless you have poems and schmoopy stuff about her consistently, it's probably not worth it, but that's just me!
