Gosh, Cat, I KNOW my H would crack up if he knew I posted here!So yeah, I do understand your need for anonymity. I delete temp internet files, and history immediately on exiting DB. Hope that`s enough!
H is kinda funny about my friendships too-virtual and otherwise. He doesn`t get close to people and never encouraged in home entertainment here though I went ahead anyway. Invited couples over for dinner that type of thing until the work load got too much for me and anyhow i found the lunch/coffee with the girls a whole lot easier anyhow.
He did turn on me last summer though and say "You have no friend". Well, I knew that wasn`t true but obviously pointed to some lack he had in himself re friendship.
DBing has made me even more grateful from friendship. No, not the need to tell all re our sitch-just the need to get out thereand have a lot of fun and kindness spread about the place.
DBing has also made me get off my ass and widen the friendship circle-part of my open door policy now on letting life in!
As for virtual friends-met a few through my genealogy hobby and have had a journal for YEARS(Oh, H will SHOOT me for this!) through which I`ve met a few very dear people.
Would love to have the courage to meet them in real life. Actually I think I will. Though I do worry about how to explain their existence to H.I can hear him already "Where on earth did you meet that woman from Darwin?"
