Surprisingly, Liz, no. I actually held out with "hot rod"... He was "breaking up" with a defacto partner (messy story for a rainy day) when we "got together" - well , more decided we wanted to see each other again after spending some time getting to know each other one night over alot of CD beer at work...

AND, yep, Ana, it is funny, cos he's soooooo NOT "hot rod!" lol!! ]]> Sat, 07 Jul 2007 19:37:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=174661&title=do-you-tell#174661 <![CDATA[Do you tell? : My family all know about OB not...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=174479&title=do-you-tell#174479 Author: MyMinis

Well i tend not to tell anyone as this is my place with my friend's.  I am very aware what I say however mailnly cause so many people know me(man it's a small world).

And I will refere to all you guy's as my friend's.

Mel My Dh use to play online gaming infact he got me hooked on the thie computer.  As for meeting my Dh we meet at work very boreing.

Oh and I have meet load's of friend's off the net not jsut this site.  If it was not for the net I would not really have too many friend's here in the Naki I knew no one when i moved up here.

LOL! My DH is on here, I got him hooked when I started quoting all the jokes that went on during pages 85-105 of the due in March thread! Sometimes he just comes on to stalk my thoughts I think But I actually don't mind him being around on here, if I have any probs with him I bring it up with him anyway, and I haven't really needed to 'rant' about him for quite a while.]]> Fri, 06 Jul 2007 22:44:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=174308&title=do-you-tell#174308 <![CDATA[Do you tell? : Interesting how many met there...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=174221&title=do-you-tell#174221 Author: Southlandmummy

I usually talk about people on here as my friends - not RL or internet, just friends. If I do mention it, I normally say a parenting website I chat on. I once told someone about this site specifically and that backfired - she told sis about it and then she read everything I wrote and threatened to tell ILs, husband etc, blah blah, got a bit messy for a while!

I usually just say 'friend' if I am ever referring to anyone on here.

I also kinda sorta met my DF online.

I met DF via the internet, turned out better than the usual way thru friends and at the pub.
I got onto this site via nz wedding planner.
DF uses online forums all the time to discuss his hobbies etc, and usually to buy stuff. Which is his only worry with OB as he thinks it will make me want lots of babies.. haha I haven't brought anything baby related yet! And i have friends babies to buy for, thats my excuse anyways.

See DH and I met the conventional way but I don't really see the difference between normal dating and internet dating.

When DH and I went on our first date we didn't know a lot about each other having only known the other at work. Whereas on the internet so I have been told it's generally a lot of talking before the dating. Therefore providing the person has been honest you actually have an advantage. I personally think internet dating is romantic good on those that have done it.

Back on topic I have told a few people about OhBaby but usually just say "a mate".]]> Fri, 06 Jul 2007 10:39:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=173771&title=do-you-tell#173771 <![CDATA[Do you tell? : Oh yeah, and I do sometimes worry...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=173765&title=do-you-tell#173765 Author: nikkitheknitter

Another ditto here as to how I met my DH!! Initially I was embarrased about it because it wasn't really the norm back then, and so I told a couple of porkys about how we met to a few people But now, I just spit it out and people either say "oh me too" or they don't bat an eyelid cause it's pretty common now. Plus, I'm a geek and people often expect me to only be sitting in front of a computer all day anyway..

I tell some people but like you a few of you I don't tell them the name of the site as this is my home and I don't really want them to see what I have to say.

I still remember that Holmes episode BS the txt's that got sent in were nasty.

Ditto, Danni!!!

And ditto, Ana and BS - DH and I met online and my mum felt she had to lie to her family about how we met as she was afraid how some of them may take it. I told her that I didn't want to have to keep up that lie/fib and told them the truth. They were fine with it! I admit, I'm still a little bit embarassed to admit it to people I don't know well, but most people take it fine! We're happily married with a baby, so things worked out well didn't they?! ]]> Fri, 06 Jul 2007 08:52:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=173685&title=do-you-tell#173685 <![CDATA[Do you tell? : Yep I tell people, they know that...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=173684&title=do-you-tell#173684 Author: .Mel

Yep I tell people, they know that I used to be on NZWP and that I met heaps of girls from that site, and they know that some of those girls are now on this site. I'm not sure if they've ever come on to find me though... it wouldn't worry me if they did.]]> Fri, 06 Jul 2007 08:50:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=173684&title=do-you-tell#173684 <![CDATA[Do you tell? : Im the same as you teresa, I dont...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=173683&title=do-you-tell#173683 Author: my2angels

Im the same as you teresa, I dont really tell anyone. Not because Im embarassed but because i dont want them coming online and seeing what I write, its a place I can vent and gossip. Its almost like an online diary, I know you guys are reading but dont want others to if that makes any sense at all.]]> Fri, 06 Jul 2007 08:50:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=173683&title=do-you-tell#173683 <![CDATA[Do you tell? : My friends know that I talk to...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8839&PID=173668&title=do-you-tell#173668 Author: Bubbaloo

Dh knows the site (bugger!!!)
Mum knows i chat online...but not sure of sites
Friends and work etc know i talk to other "mums" online but not sure of sites...
dont really want to share with them cause i like some anonymity on here and being able to vent...

I also met DH online - something about his love of water / sea attracted me....back when it was all scary and new and getting engaged meant we told everyone the truth of how we met - had told a few oldies at my work etc that we met in a coffee shop and they couldnt work that one out at all....when truth came out they didnt really care cause everyone knew him and knew we were a perfect match!

I'm curious to know if you tell your friends and rellies about OB? Or are you too embarrassed? For me, when I relay info from people on here I say "a friend of a friend said..." (or a friend if it's someone I feel I know kinda well). And there's NO WAY I'd point my rellies (sis etc) in this direction because it's my "safe venting/talking spot" LOL
