This is something that is for me only I share alot with him, but I know my limits and if a person didn't vent... I am afraid that is not good. You need to hear others so that you know that you are not alone and also to keep your sanity , and let get real men don't understand women anyway lol so.... I would burn my computer before I let him read my posts Him knowing what i feel to the fullest extent is not good That is what I have friends and family for :)~B~

We're at the point now that when he screws up, he asks how much trouble he's in with the StepTalk girls.

My fiance is actually the one who found this site & brought it to my attention. He also knows that I visit this site on a regular basis, along with knowing that I have posted my own blogs as well as answered others. Anything I have posted or said is not anything I haven't or wouldn't say to him so I have no problem if he ever wanted to read what I have put on this site. I don't feel I have anything to hide & if he doesn't like what I have said in any of my posts, then he is allowed his opinions as I am allowed mine.

What doesn't kill you, will make you stronger!

Only because I don't chose my words as wisely when I talk about him.

My Dh doesn't even know about this site. He does not like to think that anything is "less than perfect". Plus, each of us are very protective of our kids and he takes their behavior and my issue with it very personally. Plus, I think a third party where I can vent issues provides more clarity without having to worry about hurting feelings.

Sure do- I like Colorado Girl often don't choose to sensor myself, or worry about wording but thats nothing new to himLOL> He also knows that this is a place for me to go when I need to say it no matter how it sounds-he says its fine because atleast he doesn't have to hear it as often(I am really horrid about continually obsessing over things to give them reason-I am trying to stop and have gotten ALOT better) he already knows what I am going to say before even one keystroke happens anyway.

There is no reaon where logic does not exist

We are at the point that little is hidden. He does know that I vent in the safety of the Step Talk site.

I do not share anything about this site with my DH. He'd probably be more than offended and absolutely not understanding. He doesn't want anyone knowing that we're not a "real" family. He has issues, seriously, about what other people think. He gets upset when I use the word "step" when people ask "are you so-n-so's mom?" So he'd hate it. However, he's a computer genius and probably knows I'm on this site and probably reads it and probably thinks he's being sneaky about it, but if he wants to be sneaky like that then he can really see how I feel since he won't listen when I say anything to him and just tells me I'm weak and doesn't think I'll be able to handle my own baby coming in a few weeks.
Do I feel guilty for it sometimes? yes. And if he asked me would I tell him? yes, of course. Do I feel like I"m hiding anything from him? Nope, everyone needs help and this is where I get it You gals are like free shrinks

DH thinks most of you are hilarious! He also likes the fact that we can get third party, uninvolved, non-vested opinions.

Its funny, because now he will ask me to ask you guys what you think of a situation before proceeding!
