loverofloveandstuff Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 Why does she think LS is stupid??? Is it just me, or is there some sort of stigma towards online forums?? I feel like there is and I wouldn't disclose that I used loveshack to any of my friends that are the same age (18).
Author mogul Posted November 2, 2010 Author Posted November 2, 2010 Is it just me, or is there some sort of stigma towards online forums?? I feel like there is and I wouldn't disclose that I used loveshack to any of my friends that are the same age (18). There is a taboo about needing to resort to the internet for help. None of my friends know as well, and i'm paranoid about people knowing i'm on here (thus my paranoia and why I started this thread). I'm college aged as well, and my friends would never let me live it down. I used to have this certain image of people who use online forums but I randomly stumbled on this site after googling for relationship help about a situation with my then gf. People (or myself) would never imagine I be on here seeing as I am pretty outgoing and social, with a good network of friends and seemingly happy life. There are car forums, sports forums, so I guess this is pretty normal and a positive outlet to vent or seek advice.
strength-abounds Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 Frankly, I don't know give a rat's a** if she view's what I posted about her on LS. As far as I'm concerned, the entire world should know that she's an alcohol soaked, two dime w***e that can't walk past a donkey show without getting turned on.
loverofloveandstuff Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 that can't walk past a donkey show without getting turned on. WTF?!? I hope this is a joke.
utterer of lies Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 You should always assume that people will connect what you write here to your real identity eventually. No one is anonymous.
loverofloveandstuff Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 You should always assume that people will connect what you write here to your real identity eventually. No one is anonymous. Yeah, I should've thought about that before I started posting. I thought the internet was anonymous but I guess not always. I have implied some very private information on this website that I would not want my family and all but one of my friends knowing. What's done is done, I'll get over it. I was going to make another account but eff that!
somedude81 Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 It would be pretty bad for me if the girl I was talking about read my posts while I was still after her. I would be pretty freaked out if I read somedude81's posts and actually knew the guy
TheMENemy Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 NEVER post ANYTHING on a forum like this without assuming that at some point it could become "public knowledge" and that the people who you don't want to find out about it, will.
carhill Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 (edited) Why does she think LS is stupid??? If that was directed at me, I really don't know. It came up when we were discussing 'gaslighting' in MC and I explained where I had first come across the word. I was describing how I felt manipulated and went on to describe gaslighting and the MC asked what that was and I explained it and where I read it and that's when she said something about 'that stupid place'. The MC tabled that and moved on to other things. I had pretty much decided the M was over at that point, so didn't see any real reason to suss out why she felt LS was stupid. It is what it is. She participates in a lot of online forums so, generally, doesn't feel they're stupid. Hey, we're officially divorced now so it doesn't matter Edited to add that, even with remarkable transparency due to my journals here, my phone rings less, there is less drama and I feel healthier than I have in years. No one has burned the house down while I've been gone and there are a number of LS'ers who know my phone number. I guess I'm really not that important in the big scheme of things and I think that's instructive. Edited November 2, 2010 by carhill
strength-abounds Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 WTF?!? I hope this is a joke. Never used to be that way. Not sure now.
Krytie TV Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 I was caught!!! I've had someone I was talking about actually post on the topic. It was a little embarrassing. It's moments like that you can be glad that you respect people in general. Fortunately, I had talked about her not being my physical type because of her weight but I was otherwise as respectful as anyone could be about it. We still talked a couple of times after, but not for long.
collegeguy_24 Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 If my ex knows that I am posting on here, I would just love it if she told me she knew. Same with her new BF. I don't really care, in the beginning I was a little worried, but not now. I actually was think that I would love my ex to read my main tread, then maybe she can see just how much she means to me. But if she doesn't, then still post for my own therapeutic help.
Anela Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 I've wondered about that; nobody has admitted to it, if they have... I think one guy found me on another forum, but I can't be sure. This username would be recognizable to them.
ReturnToSender Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 Wouldnt be worried about my ex, but his gf/ex-gf, whatever she is depending on his mood and such...I wouldnt be surprised. She has already scoped me out all over online and flipped out on him over of some random thing I said on some random website. He wasnt happy about some of the things I said, but was even more annoyed when I explained to him where I had put it, and that it was something I had posted only a few hours earlier...so she was keeping some serious tabs on me. But hey, if she did find this and the things Ive said it wouldnt bother me. I dont think shed much care to know how painful it was for me to find he was cheating on me with her anyway, and hes already very clued in to how I feel about that LoL!
