almostthere Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 I have started a journal. I have to write things down in order to clear my mind sometimes. I was thinking that he might understand what is wrong if he read it. I mean i wrote my heart out in there and have been hiding it because i didnt want him to know. but maybe if he did maybe it would help? Its not like i wrote anything in there just incase he read it...or didnt write anything down just incase he did. Would he even care? would it make a difference?
Cheshire Cat Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 My journal is not exactly something I'd be confortable with my SO reading, because of the colorful language and heathed tone of some parts. Would your SO be able not to take personally any unpleasant word you might have used to refer to him, any heated tone, any wild ranting about something he might have done? If your journal does not contain any of those, your SO might regard your journal as "written to be read by him".
bluechocolate Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 If your gf asked you to read her journal would you? Yes, of course.
hopelessly_naive Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 My boyfriend and I read eachothers journals, him reading mine was okay because I didn't start writing in that particular one until after we started dating. His however was an internet one he'd started a few years ago. It felt uncomfortable reading stuff about girls he was with before even though I didn't read anything I didn't know before. So just be careful.
steve1977 Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I have to be blunt here but jeeeez blunt is my middle name. A journal is a girly thing and not a guy thing ok, so no he wont have the same interest but he will prob care about you. You really gotta remember that what you females are into to is not wat us guys are into......K , take it easy x http://www.problempages.net
norajane Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 If there's something you want him to understand, why don't you write him a letter?
whichwayisup Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Letter yes, diary no. The diary is for your own private thoughts, and the letter can be more focussed and direct on what you'd like to say.
Mystic Gohan Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 of course, i would think there is something in there that she wants you to read but i would only read it if she asked, i would never try to steal a peek.
Age18Male Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 ..i would, if he cares what you think, let him read it. Dont just give it to him.. leave it out on accident and make a big deal.. about him not reading it.. then he will want to know what it says and just let him read it. Maybe it will clear alot of problems/mis-communication up. And if it creates another problem.. you'll be right there to talk it over with him aand how you felt when you were writing about it. It will bring you closer.. Thats what i think anyway.
