To Tell or Not To Tell

Alright ladies, and the few gents that read this blog.  Do you tell the people you’re seeing or dating about your blog? 

I haven’t mentioned it to anyone I’ve dated, or am dating.  Not the scientist, not PokerMan and not Irishman.  Many don’t know, neither do my parents, my family or most of my friends.  Jenn, Shan, a few very special ladies I know and Wingman are the only ones in the know. 

I’ve thought of telling Irishman, but really, do I want him to be able to keep tabs on me?  It’s kind of like the Twitter thing, I just don’t think it’s in my best interest.  ;)

    Is that right? Thank you Brett. I will remember that. ;)

    I’m not one for secrets…at all. But, I’d keep this to yourself. If I weren’t dating, my identity would be all over it…but while dating, no way. You’re falling for the guy…which is fine…but don’t give away the farm on your “2nd date”. *smile*

  4. QTMama Says:

    I am not falling for the guy. I just like him. *sticking tongue out* Don’t know me so well, dammit!

    No one knows about my singleworkingmommy blog, because I felt I couldn’t be honest on my other blog that everyone knows about. I wanted an outlet where I could be honest and upfront about stuff, hence I started a new blog and didn’t tell anyone “IRL” about it.

    I like having this new blog that is all “mine” and I don’t feel censored. It’s much more theraputic this way.

    Also, I said hence.

    I would say Not to tell, well Not to tell just yet. Once you do, you can never take it back. So you have given it to the people who you trust and who trust you. It is a very personal thing to put your feelings out there, you don’t want to have to start explaining things or having to think about it before you let those finger’s flow.

  7. QTMama Says:

    Very wise advice ShaNaNa! Per the norm. ;)

    i take the “not to tell” stand… by telling people you may find it necessary to edit your blog according to who reads it, you may not be able to be or express your feelings in a completely honest way, and you may not feel comfortable writing something or regret writing something that you know may visible to certain people. this blog allows you to be free; i think that is a good thing to maintain, well, at least for now.

    Here’s the thing…if you’re even questioning it, don’t tell him. You can *always* tell him later – but you can never take it back once you’ve told him. So wait until you’re sure.

  10. Red Wine Gums Says:

    What RandomEsq said. I personally prefer the separation of online media. If it really works, in time you could show him but keep it secret. Keep it safe.

  11. One Date Wonder Says:

    DO NOT TELL. Seriously. Trust a fellow anonymous blogger and keep this shit to yourself.

  12. QTMama Says:

    Ok, I’m not sayin a word then! No need, I have all you guys!

  13. sensualmuse Says:

    Everyone has secrets. No need to tell them all.

  14. QTMama Says:

    Sensualmuse – Welcome, and LOVE the pic. Great shoes! ;)

  15. Tracy Says:

    I have to agree with the *not to tell*….I don’t know, it’s just…..personal on a different level. Maybe once I knew there was a future with this person, but until then…it’s my “dirty yet clean little secret” (wink)

  16. Dark Angel Says:

    When I started my blog, i did not tell anyone about it. I let it slip one day, and now my boyfriend will occasionally read it. I can’t blog about stuff that i do that i might jeopardize my relationship. I have been toying with the idea of starting another one now.
