This inspired me to post this from silverwhispers post.
There was questions asked if your S/O blogged on this site also or if you knew their screen name if they did.
That got me thinking...as I don't have to worry about that as I am alone.  What would you do if you found out that your s/o was also on SC and you didn't know it.  How would you really know for sure if they were if they didn't tell you?
I know there are a few here that do share this space with their mate and I think that is pretty darn great.  But what about the ones that use this place for a "get away" and a venting place?  How would you handle it if you found out that your husband/wife/s.o. was here reading you?  Do you think you'd be able to recognize them if you started reading them? 
Just curious...
would it bother you?

    I thought about this before telling Bill about this place.  I've had some pretty big rants about him in the past, but they're staying put.  Nothing is ever achieved by hiding or lying to your spouse.

    Hubby has no interest what so ever in computers or my being on SC.  I recently told him about it, and wondered if I had made a mistake, but he doesn't care or ask--or know how to get on here and find it even, I don't think!  I tell him a few interesting things sometimes that I read on here, but that's as far as it has gone.

    That Uni, she's always on the high road haha. My wife (too old to go the s/o route) it seems lame to me.

    Anyway, to the subject matter, she doesn't do online at all. If she did, I don't know what I'd do. I like to be free here, so it wouldn't be as good and I suppose I wouldn't find the place attractive........I'd pull out Quiet.

    I invited my wife onto Soul Cast but she didn't have any interest in it. She would have been more interested if it meant that she would make friends with a woman face to face. That was her reaction. Someone to go shopping with, or go to New York with, or talk on the phone with.

    I don't have to worry my husband does not write or read English. 
  • quietone said on Nov 14, 2007....
    uniquely ~ I agree about the hiding things that is for sure...but what if he wanted to come here too and blog.  would that change how you'd blog and the topics you'd choose, or affect your comments?
    wombat ~ I remember you telling me that when you and I met.  Thats good I think that you have this space to call your own.
    mobil ~ I think I'd feel the same way...it just wouldn't be the same..its like invading your "space" I guess.  Not that anyone would have anything to "hide"...its like leaving out a diary and having someone in your home go through it without your permission I guess is the way I'd feel.
    Lbno ~ yes, I guess that is a woman for ya...always thinking about shopping LOL...too bad, I'd gone shopping and to NY with her.
    skald ~ well then, I guess you are all set.  does he have interest in your Icelandic blog site?

    Well, she sure isn't quiet. You would need a wrench and pliars to try to get a word in edgewise. And when she talks she also moves her hands all over the place. If we're in a diner I like to stick the salt shaker in one of her hands when she's moving it all over.
  • destinydiva said on Nov 15, 2007....
    hiya quiet :-) ....I wouldnt share with any future significant other...  only because  I did it with trav... and granted it was fun being a part of this place together....  it caused some dodgy moments when things got messy between us....  and even now, there are some things I hold back from writing because I know he still checks in on here....   so nope....  I would share stories and the fact that I blog....  but never where  I blog or who I am here and I guess I would be really upset if any future s/o found this place, my ex hubby  found it and my name and prob checks in here all the time cus he is sad like that!!!  but I dont care that much...  there are a couple of things I would like to write about in my life that I dont because its stuff I dont want him knowing because he would get a kick out of it! another reason to keep this place to myself and not let anymore men from my life in on it!!  ....   :-) xx


  • fearing said on Nov 15, 2007....
    @Lbfno - You made me laugh reading about your wife and the salt shaker. 


    My SO knows I blog here.  I even wrote about telling him.  I was a little afraid because it meant sharing something that was just mine.  I wondered if he would start blogging here or consistently read what I wrote but so far, I don't believe either has happened.  lol.  He doesn't care for writing and seems too busy to read my posts.  I'm liking it. 
  • quietone said on Nov 15, 2007....
    queenie ~ sometimes it is nice to be single...and "free"  !!  :)
     
    Lbno ~ LOL you are too funny... I don't talk much..well most of the time!  She must have some french in her with the hand moving thing! 
     
    destiny ~ that is kinda the way I feel too...its not really "hiding" anything..its a matter of choosing to keep some things to yourself...I guess.  I would however, let my s/o know what I was doing and even share some stories with him, but not the space~  thanks
  • skald said on Nov 15, 2007....
    Quiet.  No, not often but I can tell that he likes my writings when I read for him. 
  • Me-Myself&I said on Nov 15, 2007....
    Hello! ((hug))...to answer your question first....well, i really don't care who reads my stuff, sometimes i can say things here and not in real life. so, if you want
    to know the Whole Truth, nothing but the truth.....read me! *smile*
    On a different note.....Quietone....i just wanted you to know i was thinking of
    you and hope all is well with you. i read that your grandchild came to your house....cool!! i hope you have a great Thanksgiving Day and i am wishing you all the best!! leaving in 4 days to see my son....**smile** be gone for a week so i will miss you! take care    see ya!
  • CreativeWoman said on Nov 15, 2007....
    My husband knows that I blog.  He doesn't know where or what screen name I use. He never really asks what I blog about.  I don't tell.  He stays away from computers so I doubt he would ever read me anyway.  He already knows the issues I have with our relationship.  I don't think it would be a surprise to him.

    Well everyone knows Natalie blogs here too. And recently, my brother showed up too. He wasn't invited by me though. He just searched it out and found this place. That bothered me. And not because I was worried about him reading it, but because it seemed like an invasion of my privacy. I got over it though. He already knows everything about me anyway.

    But basically, I don't like the idea of someone reading my blog that I know, if I don't know they're reading. It's one thing if I'm aware of it, otherwise it just feels sneaky to me.

  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 15, 2007....
    I did invite Bill to blog, and though I think he hasn't, I'd welcome it.  I'd like to say I wouldn't change how I blog, but I'm sure that I might monitor myself a little more.  Not a lot, and perhaps not noticeably to anyone else, but enough for me to think twice before I blogged information that could be a sore spot with him.
  • SecretKeeper85 said on Nov 15, 2007....
    My husband has no clue that I blog. I feel like when I do come on SC it's for me to vent without having to worry about being judged. "Chris" blogs on SC and he knows that I do. However I never read his blog out out of respect for his privacy and he's never asked me my screen name.I understand sharing is a part of a relationship but at some point you have to have something to yourself. I don't think my husband would really care that I blogged but he would be upset because it would just be something else about me that has changed since we seperated..and got back together. Just the other day I was at Ulta (a makeup store) and he stopped and asked me when did I become so into makeup especially since I don't really need it and since I've never been big on it until we broke up. Sooooo..if something as simple as makeup sparks so many questions image the questions he would have he knew that I blogged.
  • quietone said on Nov 15, 2007....
    skald ~ that is so sweet of you to read to your husband.  I am sure he does enjoy your stories as much as we all do here.  :) 
     
    MM&I ~ hi ya, I am so, so happy for you ...4 days woo hoo!!  I will look fwd to some great stories when you get back!  yes, its kinda easier to spill to names on a blank screen instead of f2f. 
     
    CW ~ I am glad you have your space to come here to w/o any misfiring from him.
     
    e.t. ~ yes, exactly the point I was so bumbling trying to make.
     
    uniquely ~ if he decided to blog and did not tell you his screen name do you think you'd know who he was by the way he wrote?  (if he didn't talk about personal experiences like a trip you 2 took etc.) 
     
    secretKeeper ~ hello and welcome. That is good that you can get some space of your own here.  thanks for stopping by.
  • husbandhater said on Nov 15, 2007....

    Wouldn't care, I'd hope he read well enough to change some of his stupid ways.

     

  • wakingharmony said on Nov 15, 2007....

    lbno7~ you are so crazy! I can see her doing that though, & and you putting salt shaker in her hand... being married to you must keep her smiling...you two are such nuts.. 

    If Thomas did get on SC I think I'd know maybe lol.... he is not interested in This place much. I read some things to him and he listens sometimes or will say put in "Boobies" and see what comes up!!! I wanna`see some boobies....Thats Thomas...hee hee

  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 15, 2007....
    Honestly, I don't know.  I think so.  I'm pretty sure I could tell by what he chose to write about, etc.  He hates reading and writing, so I doubt he'd be very prolific in his blogs.
  • quietone said on Nov 15, 2007....
    husbandhater ~ probably would take more than that! LOL
     
    waking ~ men and boobies...omg...LOL  well then you'd probably recognize his blog, cause he'd be askin' wheres the boobs?  ha
  • quietone said on Nov 15, 2007....

    uniquely ~ sounds like he is probably going to leave the blogging in the family up to you in the family! :)

  • rightwingwizard said on Nov 15, 2007....
    This post bring to mind another place I used to frequent many years ago.  It was a chat site, well before video chat or even voice chat.
     
    I would go there nearly every night and chat away for hours unaware that one of my aquaintances from work was there as well.   I discovered that she was there quite by mistake, but she knew my user name the whole time.
     
    I don't think I said anything that would cause any difficulties for me, but I did make references to some of my co-workers from time to time and she certainly knew about whom I was talking.  Much of it was not particularly complimentary.
     
    I quit chatting on that site right away, at least under that user name.
     
    As a result I rarely chat on a local site.
     
    rww
     
     
  • quietone said on Nov 15, 2007....
    rww ~ it just makes things uncomfortable I think.  well, at least she didn't make a big scene out of it at work with you.

  • moyz said on Nov 20, 2007....
    I'm single...but i've let an online friend from far away know that I blog and where i blog..but he is cool...and doesnt read it all the time...in fact he hardly reads it...coz he aint a blogger.....the other guy i write abt reads soulcast on and of..but doesnt blog...but since they are all not anything more than friends...i dont mind them reading and i wont change how i blog....
  • quietone said on Nov 21, 2007....
    moyz ~ that is good that you don't have to change how you blog, and wont.  I don't think anyone should have to do that.
  • MsImmortality said on Feb 17, 2008....
    It wouldn't be so bad with the S/O but with an ex S/O it would be tough.  I would leave for sure. 
  • quietone said on Feb 17, 2008....
    I would find it hard even with a s/o but even more so with an ex.  I might tend to be a bit biased there and/or angry! and that is not my nature.
  • fearing said on Feb 17, 2008....
    It would only bother me if I felt betrayed or lied to.  My S/O knows I'm here and I talk about it with him.  I doubt if he comes to SC though.  I'm not worried about him finding out anything because I don't have anything to hide.

Bring it on? Bring it on?? Mixednuts, you are clueless. Only the most naïve would tempt bringing on the storm, the force of nature, the merciless onslaught known as ---- (shhhh) I dare not speak the name for fear of SER (search engine revenge)...
warning: use of SoulCast may cause liver disfunction in some users. If you experience coughing, crying or anyone named mohammed stop using SoulCast and call your doctor. SC should not be used by anyone suffering from writer's urge, or 4 hour erections....
I don't have to much to write about. Nothing really interesting. I am here reading blogs and leaving comments....
