Okay, I promised to discuss some barriers that SO and I have run across, so here we go.
SO has talked off and on all during our split about journaling, etc. In a conversation about a month ago, as he was again talking about journaling, he used the word "blog" (I'm sure you all know what a blog is). At that time, I asked him if he had a blog and he said "no, I'm just using it interchangably...blog, journal, diary, etc...."
About two weeks ago, we went out after work for hotwings and beer. The subject came up again, and again, he slipped up and used the word "blog". I asked him again if he had a blog, and this time he said, "yes."
Needless to say I got pretty upset with him. This it the first time, to the best of my knowledge, he has ever lied to me about anything. Yes, I admit, I'm upset that he has actually more than one blog, and past ex gf's know about his first, but not his second (or so he said), but what really upsets me is that he lied to me about it.
I told him how upset I was about this. We parted that evening not exactly on the best of terms. We weren't angry, but I was very sad and hurt and he knew it. He apologized for lying, and he said he was afraid that if I knew about the blogs I'd go looking for them, and then I'd just be hurt by what I read. (Gee, that makes me feel good too...)
