I try with a little help from my friends

seriously.

Just exactly when in a dating relationship should you admit to a guy that you blog.


And then at what point do you let him know where it is so he can read it.

or...don't you...???

I'm with Bee - don't do it.

You wouldn't share a personal diary, would you?

Mel said...

Oh boy.....

I probably have a different take on it just from my experience.

The Brit can read any time he likes. He chooses not to.
I have my journal by the night stand. He chooses not to read that either.
He's welcome to read in either place at any time and knows how to get there/where the journal is. No secrets there....no secrets here.

Dating a fella--dunno that I'd invite him into the journal or the web log.
Sharing a life with a lifemate...it's just another piece of that 'honesty foundation' that I totally agree with.

I wouldn't do it...if you end up marrying him he most likely won't your blog...so why share the url now???

MaR said...

read, I meant: he most likely won't read your blog

Ms Bee: yeah...its too late for you. Smile.

Trav: nope. That's why I don't have one.

Mel: those of us without a lifemate...let alone a brit...have tougher choices sometimes.

Mar: I'm guessin' this one would read it.

I'm with most of the other commenter's - I say don't do it. Not yet anyway. You may feel comfortable enough later to share it. If you're asking and wondering, then you're not sure, and shouldn't. :-)

One of the reasons I started blogging was I could say what I wanted and pretty much assumed no one was really reading it anyway. Then I gave my blog address to a few friends... and that was ok... but then the blog expanded and I sent it out to more people... but then my writing became constrained. More on my post...

I think it's up to you when you trust the person. If you trust them enough to be physically intimate, then you should trust them with your blog.
Lots of couples I know don't read the other's blog anyway. (Lee doesn't read mine).
But that's just my 2 cents.
I think the "don't do it" is also good for a few pennies...

Hubby reads my blog sometimes. Sometimes he doesn't. If I were single I would probably tell all right away. If he ran screaming then I would keep looking. Much easier to move on before things get too serious than to find out it isn't going to work afterward.

yeah...if he runs screaming....
