Shortly after I joined the site I was singing its praises to many friends and family. Then I was going through a rough period, some of the issues that I thought I’d dealt with years ago reared their ugly head. It occurred to me that I had not shared many of the difficult things from my childhood with these friends, nor did I ever intend to so I thought I’d better start keeping my big mouth shut. Now I just say “the site I go to online.”
My husband knows exactly where I go, he even has an account here (AAAAB) but he’s only logged on a handful of times.
I’m not trying to hide anything, I just want to be brutally honest with what I’m feeling at the time. My perspective may be wrong, I like the ability to vent and get feed back and not have to apologize later. Or worse yet, hurt someone’s feelings because one of us is having a bad day.
If I was open about the site, I think I’d be much more guarded here.
