I totally feel like I'm leading a double life because I make every effort to hide the other accounts and keep 'em separate.

I compl...Ahhhhh this is definitely a fear of mine!! I completely understand what you mean about showing different sides of yourself in different situations. I mean, a blog is almost like a diary-- it's [sometimes] a vulnerable thing to share it with people who know you IRL. I talk about my actual weight on my blog, so it's made me hesitant to openly share it yet. Soon enough, though!Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12580678517972772091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1274803016658821.post-55874494073913086412013-07-17T17:24:09.106-04:002013-07-17T17:24:09.106-04:00My mom knew about my blog a long time ago, and use...My mom knew about my blog a long time ago, and used to read it on the regular... until she started calling me just to ask random questions about things I posted. She still knows about it, just doesn't read it. I don't hide it from people, I just choose not to share it with most people.

I think because I wrote about weight loss I feel like everyone I know doesn't need to know about my blog. I'm not sure how I'd feel if people found it, but it would be interesting!

I'm concerned that my blog posts might affect my job search in a negative way if found by the wrong person. <br /><br />I don't hide my blog from anyone, but I also don't bring it up. That balance has worked for me thus far.

My whole family/circle of friends knows about mine, and while it's nice for it not to be a secret, I do find myself thinking 'uh oh, better not write that, aunt susan will see...' which sucks.

Another friend told me this the other day. I have never even mentioned her but she gets mad for the most bizarre reasons- like mentioning my boyfriend but not my friends. I don't get it!Kate @ Another Clean Slatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08646464393586461119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1274803016658821.post-75914724168556248762013-07-17T10:37:20.135-04:002013-07-17T10:37:20.135-04:00such a great post! and so true, we say things to o...such a great post! and so true, we say things to other bloggers... and we fear that other might not understand. since a lot of times they don't. but it is exciting to share it with friends and see what their opinion is. plus its not a secret anymore!Helenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07281689617194191990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1274803016658821.post-72470639207280194502013-07-17T10:30:19.264-04:002013-07-17T10:30:19.264-04:00I can't remember if I told you or not, but my ...I can't remember if I told you or not, but my aunt found mine and READ IT OUT LOUD AT A FAMILY FUNCTION.
