Do your significant others know about EC?

Yep, and she is a member here too

 

My boyfriend does but he doesn't like it

 

Doesnt know what one.

 

That I am, lol.

 

How do birds and cats get along?

 

Yep, but he doesn't care to make an account, though he is entertained by some of the topics we talk about that I've shown him, and for obvious reasons, doesn't want me to post pictures of him.

 

I'm not in a relationship but I've told my best friend about EC.

 

He knows and doesn't care, but he does read my posts on occasion.

 

Significant wha?

 

You two are too cute to live.

No, my boyfriend doesn't know, and I'd prefer to keep it that way. I really have no reason to tell him.

I've only told one person about EC, and that was because she needed some help, so she may have seen me (I directed her to the advice section, where I rarely appear), but I don't feel the need to tell anyone about it.

 

My ex knows I'm on here...I think. It's come up once or twice or he's seen first-hand. My best friend knows I'm on here also

 

I have told EC more things than most of my friends and family. I don't want my (imaginary at the moment ) significant other from finding out all of my thoughts, political beliefs, stances, prejudices, inclinations, etc.

I'd like for him to learn of all these things slowly during the dating process. Maybe once we've dated for a while, I would perhaps tell him.

 

I don't want him to know my username purely because I have a habit of panicking and posting doubts I have about us that aren't really all that credible If i was an emotionally stable human being then I would have no problem with him knowing haha

 

I don't have one *sob*

 

Should I ever find myself in a relationship lol I don't think I'd tell my boyfriend about EC. It's actually quite nice to have a place on the internet where nobody really knows you and where you aren't judged for what you say. I'm afraid I'd have to censor myself at times if I did tell someone about EC.

 

My partner knows I'm here and on another site specific to bisexuality. She doesn't care for online interaction so much, so has not made an account on either site, and so far (and as far as I know) doesn't visit either site. I do think this makes me a bit cavalier about how I express myself in both places...and I hope that never comes back to bite me...but on the other hand, I don't think I've ever said anything that I wouldn't be comfortable talking about with her, so I'm not losing sleep over it.

 

My wife knows I'm on a forum for support, but fortunately isn't internet-savvy enough to go looking for it, thank God. She's never taken any of my feelings about anything seriously to begin with, and reading them online would not make her more understanding, only more dismissive. I've shared things here that I have no intention of telling her anyhow, ever, being on EC would also give her a window into my relationship with my boyfriend that I ABSOLUTELY would not want her to have.

 

*sobs* now out enough to even have one.

 

My partner and several friends know I'm here and I've recommended the site to a new friend who is coming out. My partner has other online interests and doesn't come here, although I wouldn't care if he did.
