I exposed myself to my husband

I did it. My husband saw my blog. So I was keeping my blog private from him. I was keeping it private because I didn't want him to judge me or laugh at me.

You would think that after being with someone for 4 years, getting married, merging finances, and participating in all the things couples do together that I wouldn't be this way. But I am. I am afraid of judgment at the level that blogging allows. Blogging allows for thoughts deeper than what I would say or write publicly.

I think it was, Simply, Me (Wishcake), who did the blog entry about the difference between blogging and journaling.

I agree with her thoughts on the matter. I simply think blogging is a step further than I have ever gone. Perhaps this is why as a marketer and and social media specialist it still took me so long to get on board.

Honestly, I know I said this is a previous post, but it is a great thing I have found here so far. I feel like I am part of a community and a niche where I belong. I find other bloggers to be honest. Most are very open to meeting other bloggers. Mostly, all of us have the common thread of the word.

My husband hasn't read my blog, and I don't want him to either...

I dislike Ohio State because it seriously bothers me that they insist to be called "THE" Ohio State University at all times. It really truly bothers me for some odd reason. Also, I am a Big 10 Fan - I lived in Indy and would always go to the tourney games - I prefer IL (since that's where I'm from orginally) Indiana and Purdue... sorry if you went to Ohio State.

I wasn't sure if I wanted my boyfriend to read my blog but I felt when I thought about what I wanted to do and where I wanted to go with my blog, that I definitely needed to tell him!

So far it's been great :)

My husband hasn't read mine and I wouldn't want him to! God, no, because I talk about some complex feelings for him in it!
