SHOULD WE SHARE OUR PERSONAL LIFE?

I see more and more members that share their most personal life in a blog. We see several members fall in love, break up, get back together again. We all follow this with great interest, specially when we get all the ugly stuff, he said she said, she did he did, once it's out there, it's there to stay, and we have long memories...
Do you think this a smart thing to do?
Do you want all to know what a rotten person he/she is
Does it make you feel better when the support is for you?
Do you count the votes?
No, I would never share
Only with my close friends
Other

Damn...I missed it. Who broke up? LOL



The positive is there. Sometimes it's just hard to find.

Well.... Fer one, the TV soap's have nothing compared to the blogs. LOL Now. The reasons for typing those words in cyber? Are many. And we can speculate on each forever.

Shoulda? On-line? For real? No. Fer another, the Marketeers love it. That email on a sale item just may have been something you said out there in cyber.

Don't think anyone's life is a secret. Might it be called communication?

It is hard when most know you have been in a relatinship with someone to just ignore the questions but I always feel comfortable just saying .."it didn't work out"..my close friends know the reasons and they support me I don't need more than that! Details are not important unless it is something extreme that is in the best interest of others safety to tell, otherwise I say MUM is the word!

Some believe in destiny, some believe in fate. I believe that happiness is something we create

    Quoting  :

Ohhh, I remember that blog! I started laughing out loud again just reading about the pubic hair and remembering!!

If a relationship doesn't work, say "it didn't work out", that is enough. Sure we wonder why, but we honestly don't need to know.

I dont think its a good idea to share very personal stuff here, it will always come back to haunt you. Some things are ok to share. It would be a very boring place if we didnt share about ourselves, what we are like, how we think, our ups and downs in life, but no, nothing very personal.

Karin, excellent blog and long overdue!! Like most here, 'we' do not share our personal experiences ... and that's why they are called 'personal'. It always amazes me to read about someone's love affair, break-up, love bashing, very personal and intriguing things about their relationship etc. And I've noticed some go on and on about the 'gone sour' relationship, almost like a 'mini-series'. Perhaps that makes them feel better (personal therapy), who knows? Wasn't it Carol Burnett who had a mini-series called 'as the stomach turns'? LOL

Maybe a man will capture your heart Ane. I think he has already done, but he need to short out his 'crap'....
Do not forget the evolution is storge, philia, agape and then eros.
