To blog or not to blog

So...I have a post sitting in my blog waiting to be published. BUT, it is very perrsonal. It is a story of someone I love. And my feelings about them are spelled out. Now this person knows the story and knows my feelings, but i am not sure how he would feel about publishing them in cyber space. What if someone we know happened across them?

I feel like this blog has become my place to get things off my chest. A diary basically and in order to tell my story properly, this chapter must be included, but at the same time, I am scared of the repercussions. The digital world is complicated

So true! A blog is a great way to let feelings out... but then what if someone you actually KNOW reads it?? That's why nobody in my real life knows about my blog (at least not that I know of)!

Well I want to know! But then again i am nosey. I guess you just need to sit down and weighs the pros and cons of posting it. What benefit would you get that outweighs any negatives you can think of. If you have one, then post it, if you don't, then you probably shouldn't. Is there a way to tell your story without identifying this person?

i say go for it, but of course, as you know, my blog is my tell all. and people i know have found it... but it's pushed me to own my feelings and just be "out there" and it's been freeing and feels good. of course there are some things i have "censored" but that is just b/c some things have to stay inside. lol for the most part, i tell it...
