Hushnic's & Sharing & Etc.

[Iris21]

Ok... still going from Friday (y'all were off da chain!). Tee asked me a question, I didn't get a chance to respond but it made me wonder:

For those of you who have attended hushnic's/regionals or intend to attend a hushnic or a regional: Significant Others: Where they at?

I understand there were no SO's at hushnic. Personally, I could never imagine spending a weekend w/ strangers but more importantly I can't see this conversation taking place: "yeah baby I'm leaving for the weekend to meet some online friends, yeah a house w/ men and women but it's all good, I'll see you on Sunday"

If this space is so much a part of your life that you would hop a plane to meet and greet, why wouldn't you share that with your significant other? And, does that say something about your relationship?

cuz this bitch is called "on the hush"

i was intro'd to the hush as a potential spot to get at coo...admin says he started it to live vicariously through mofo's doing just that...i will admit it has evovled (i too consider some folks on here close and have moved...if only slightly...past wanting to dick them)...

...call it a guilty pleasure...like hiding your candy bars in the bathroom...no real harm, but it's your, not S/O's...

now that i'm locked, i've thought about intro mrs d to it...nah...lol...she's seen the url in the address box, asked, i explained and that was it. she would rather leave me to my geekiness (she laughs when i search harry potter message boards) than to think i'm doing something wrong...

now bringing her to a hushnic...that would make both of us uncomfortable...how i look joking and tripping with my girls shyt and sparkles and getting drunk off my ass...and my wife not gettin the inside jokes or the vocabulary or any of that...

I choose not to involve my husband because this (like someone else said in another thread) is my space. My husband knows about the Hush. I share things that go on here, but thats it. It my personal space to be me.

As far as bringing him to a Hushnic...No Go. Why, cause he's not really keen on this internet thing. He cant understand why people that only talk online wanna meet.

Well like everyone else this is my space and the few men I have spoken to it about -actually were turned off by the board - Bro knows about it and I gave full disclosure about hushnic etc. but he didn't want to come.

At Hushnic actually this was kinda spoken about and I admitted after the wedding I'm not sure how it's going to go - -

I don't think it's a big deal that S/O's are not allowed.

There are jobs that don't allow S/O's to attend conferences, and even office parties that are supposed to be employee only.

Just because the Hush is online doesn't mean that it won't mirror life is some aspects.

And people have brought S/O's if they chose. Mrs. Admin was a part of Cali Hushnic and at the first Orlando Adaya brought a guy (not really sure who he was to her) but nobody tripped.

And at the Tarheels Reunion BE brought a whole gang of folks we laughed and hung out with for awhile, including her Momma. lol

(she laughs when i search harry potter message boards) than to think i'm doing something wrong...

You know, I was kind of wondering the same thing Iris. Then D answered it perfectly, the name of this bitch is "On The Hush"! LOL

[rainy]

well by the time hushnic rolled around i was single again, but i had planned to go long before that development came about.

my ex was aware that i hang out on message boards (hush isnt the only one i am on and not the only one from which i have met people in real life) and that at least once or twice a year i am going to be road tripping somewhere to meet up with them. he wasnt too concerned about it as he trusted me to behave appropriately regardless of where i am or in whose company i may be.

as for them being on the same board as i, nah that wouldnt work for me. it woudl change the dynamic too much for me and that would defeat the purpose of a message board to me. and that goes for a board that i am a member of that is strictly female, so it isnt a coed issue.

This is how I feel.

My husband knows about the Hush, knows that I go visit these crazy mofo's, kiss me, pat me on the ass and let me know he will pick me up from the airport.

Sometimes we will be talking about something and I will reference something similar that was discussed on the Hush. I let him know that I don't use his name or discuss a lot of our personal business and I only share with the Hush what I feel comfortable sharing. I have always been a private person, and he knows this.

As Aintno and Pam said......this is my space. I don't even share this space with my best girlfriends......I don't wanna share ya'll with anyone I know :)

the last few guys i have dated, including the current one, knows about the hush.

one, who is an internet junkie as i am, is a message board ho, too, so, he totally understands the full gamment of what that means. we had often times said that if we got into a full blown relationship we would say to SELECT people we met on the net and others we would say through our travels (because we both travel enough to garner that).

now with this current man, i was afraid to tell him but i told him anyways. he understands it and has no problems with it. he doesn't do message boards but he appreciates the stuff ya'll say and the stuff i share. he encourages me to get opinions from you all lol - with that he has no problems with me travelign. this is how he has met me, and i am glad he didnt' try to change me.

there is one guy i dated off and on, he is truly interested about being on the hush. he would make a nice addition, however, i like the hush being mine and mine alone. don't want to share it with any male friends.

i have female friends who love you guys from what i've told them and have read many threads. they can't get online, so, the hush remain mine alone.

but i only tell select platonic friends about this and only if i feel they can handle it.

but as far as men i date: so far my attempt to let them know up from that i'm an internet junkie upfront saves me from all the b.s.

Wow. How Can I answer this question?
