    Does your SO know about this site?

    Soo I need a little help.. I am really struggling with deciding if I should tell my SO about this site. Not because I think he will post on here or anything like that.. He barely goes on Facebook; he's really not into the whole social networking..or social anything that's online lol.. He's the guy who says, "If you want to talk, call me, don't text! " But, lately I have been mentioning all of these things I've learned or heard on this site, and I'll catch myself before saying it's from here! To be quite honest, as lame as this may sound.. I feel like it's becoming a decent sized part of my life.. posting on here, getting and giving advice, etc. I feel like you all are becoming such wonderful support system! (Awwwe )

    Now, the other side. I LOVE being able to share my thoughts and opinions without anyone I know seeing/reading/judging them. It's kind of cool. And I REALLY love being able to share my frustrations about my SO on here (nothing bad, of course, but things I wouldn't necessarily bring up to him.) It's nice to get an unbiased, honest opinion.

    See where the problem lies? What do you guys think? Do your SO's know about this site? And for those who do, do you sometime wish they didn't? lol

    TIA!!

    Yeah, when I found this site I had been browsing on my phone and then when I finally joined I told him he should join, he wasn't hesitant at all about it...well when I was browsing it on my phone he was like "we dont need something like that!" I was like, well it gives good options of things sooo yeah, I did tell him, and I wish that sometimes I hadn't because then I couldn't share what I planned to do for him etc, unless it was privately. I think that's the only downfall Let us know what you decide, if you tell him or not.. good luck ♥

      My boyfriend knows about this site, but has no interest in signing up for a couple reasons. 1) He already has a bunch of forums he visits so he doesn't need yet another forum to have to visit. 2) He likes the fact that I have a place I can go that's my own.

      Truth be told, as much as I would like him to join, I do like the fact that it's something he doesn't participate in, lol.

        My SO is not as into the internet and computers as me. He just does basic things, like email and facebook. No skyping, IMing, gaming, or anything like that. He has never joined a forum and doesn't like surfing the web unless there is a true purpose. So, even if he knew about this site, he wouldn't join, so it's not really any issue. I don't tell him about it because I figure he wouldn't get it since he's not into the social aspects of the internet.

          My boyfriend knows about the site, but he doesn't know I post on here. And I'd like to keep it that way. He has friends that he's known since he was a kid and can talk to about anything. I don't, so this is my place to talk.

            My boyfriend does know about this site. He sometimes thinks that it's silly that I'm on here, but he understands that it keeps me busy. He has no interest in joining because he is very busy. I am glad that he doesn't want to join because it gives us something to talk about

              He knows, but he doesn't care. He's not big on forums. Even if he were, I told him he couldn't post here. Why would I ask that? Well, I'm a dick. He is so much worse, his comments will get us both banned. I try to be nice, he won't sugar coat it and will make you feel like shit if he feels you deserve it XP. Besides, my forum! D:< We like having our own individual places on the internet to go to :P. Not like I say things here I don't want him to hear about, anything on here I post he knows already. Still my site ;_;.

                I tell my boyfriend about some things on here. I have never told asked him to join. I like having a place to vent to. He also doesn't really like social networking. He is a "secret" person and he won't even join facebook.. lol!

                  I haven't, and don't plan on telling my boo about this site. I know she wouldn't like me talking about her on here. She's a private person. Oh well!

                    I've told him about it. Hinted he should check it out and join but he probably wont. He's also kind of private.
                    He's into the internet but not really forums,not as much as I am I'm sure.:P I wouldn't mind if he joined, he knows most of the things I would post because I tell him pretty much everything but he's not really lovey dovey and I don't think he would be into it.

                      Heh, oh trust me, every couple hours it's "Brandon what's your opinion on this, I saw it on the forums." or "Guess what Brandon? I totally bragged up your awesomeness today on LFAD " I showed it to him the day I signed up, he never comes on, but he likes hearing about it. He also loves his bracelet, and never takes it off. He thinks it's sweet that I have friends who are going through the same things as we are that I can talk with, seeing as alot of the time he's too busy to talk to me.

                        I've mentioned the site to my SO in passing, even that I'm involved in the forums. I kind of downplay it, though. At times I've wanted to coax him to join because I think it's so neat that there are some active couples here, but I kind of like the fact that I can seek out advice and have conversations on a site that is my own. So... I'm currently happy with the way it stands.

                          My SO knows and he has an account that he doesn't use that often, he loves facebook but is not a big forum person lol. I started talking about this site so much that he got curious and made one just to check it out.

                            He knows. He's got an account. Isn't really into it that much, but checks to see what I've posted. I wasn't into forums whatsoever until I joined this site. My SO isn't really into the forums I don't think, so that could be another reason.
                            I can't say whatever I want though. Because he'll see it. Even if I post it anonymously, he KNOWS its me. So if you do choose to tell him about it and he joins, just be on your toes when it comes to negative stuff, lol.
                            He may even just like gander at it and not bother joining. Or he'll join and never go on it, if he's not that into technology.
                            I don't wish that he didn't know about the site..I'm glad to share it with him. Even tho he's not that big of an active user, I love sharing it with him.

                              He knows, and all he's asked is for me not to be too specific about details. Because you know, he wouldn't want people to know that he lives at 1234 Main Street, in Little Town, Florida. Or that his name is Joseph Michael Smith.
