...So I'm just curious... how many of you bloggers let your dear husbands read your blog?
Is it your private space, or do you openly share all your deepest thoughts about IF with him? And if you do share, how does he respond?
Just wondering...
I don't have a blog... but I wondered if you let your husband read yours? If yes, what does he think? If not, what would he think?
ReplyDeleteI don't like anyone I know IRL to read my blog. I feel that I wouldn't be as honest if I knew others were reading it. I love the anonymity of it - I can say whatever I want without really having to worry what someone else things. That being said, last year I was having a really hard time dealing with my first (and hopefully last) miscarriage. My husband was really not understanding anything, and one night when I tried talking to him I couldn't get the words out and shoved my computer at him telling him to just read my blog. I'm not really sure if he's checked it since then. I kind of think he hasn't, because he respects my privacy and knows I don't want to share it with anyone, but I'm not positive since we've never talked about it.
ReplyDeleteBoth! I'm an open book and we talk openly about everything. I'm also very lucky and have a very understanding and sensitive husband who is feeling everything right along with me. I really can't think of anything I would write about and keep from him. He does read it, but not regularly. He tends to "catch up" in big chunks. Sometimes that's not a good plan. He ends up reliving the bad stuff that way.
ReplyDeleteI not only let my husband read my blog, I ask him if he's read my posts every day - ha! I feel like I express myself better through writing than through speaking so I feel like him reading my blog is beneficial for him to know what I'm going through. We also talk pretty openly about almost everything. If there's something I really really can't share with him (usually it's a complaint against him) I put that in a private hand-written or password protected journal that he doesn't have access to.
ReplyDeleteI keep my blog pretty private, except from my husband. He can read it whenever he wants and I think sometimes it's helpful because it gives him extra insight into how I am feeling. Anything that promotes good communication is a good thing!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments! I'll post tomorrow about my reply to this question. For now, it's pillow time.
ReplyDeleteI've told my husband about my blog and have given him the url, but I think he's forgotten it exists! lol
ReplyDeleteWhen I started blogging I just left it open for him to go to when he wanted to. He did and would comment about it here and there so I just added his email to the list in my settings. When I post something he gets an email of it. So basically I don't think I gave him an option but he hasn't complained :)
