I made the mistake of telling my first online dating dates that I was blogging about my online dating experience. Several admitted that after a date with me, they'll immediately go read my blog for my review. At first I thought it was fine because then the guy gets to know exactly what I liked or disliked about him. But now I realize that letting the subject of the dating blog know of its existence isn't the best idea. HAHAHA I can agree with this post.

I am a woman. I completely agree that you should keep your personal life as private as possible, especially when you are at the dating and beginning of a relationship but calling men all these names is taking it too far. I am just like them as far as feeling like if a girl blogged about me, I'd freak. That is not about ego. It is about pressure- that part you got 100% correct. I don't want to change my relationship status on fb until we've been solid for at least a year and I don't introduce girls to my friends until it's serious. When my xgf n I broke up, it sucked. But it wouldve been worse had I put her in my top on myspace and fb and tweeted every little thing we were going through. It's not that I didn't love her or want to show the world she was so special, it's just that I revered our relationship and wanted to wait until it was properly developed before letting people in on it- the more people in your personal affairs, the more chances for drama. I don't take relationships lightly and I know how fragile they can be in the beginning. Plus out of respect, I don't want anyone knowing what we like or don't like or any disagreements we have- not strangers and not online. Cache, anyone? you are being unfair to men.

Like Lisa, I tend not to share the "good news" with friends until you are sure. And lets face it. We may be totally happy with the person we have just found. But really we won't know how they feel (are feeling). Its too early to ask them how they feel about you. I always thought it was cause I felt like a private person. I didn't wanted what happened between (us) to be broadcasted to her friends aka the world. I never even thought it was a gender thing. (lol - I'll just pick my knuckles up now and crawl back to my cave). I have found that 95% of women that I date do NOT make public posts on thier facebooks or blogs. But that 5% I do feel like I have to be careful around them. Just thought I would post - re a guy's point of view. Have always enjoyed your blog, Moxie. I can certainly relate to this.

Is she a teenager who is learning the dating ropes? I hope for her sake that she is not some 20- or 30-something who should know better. I have a blog and I often use personal experiences as material. I haven't been in a relationship but use hypothetical situations and imagery to hide the actual -- and that still hasn't worked. Men are fickle beasts. They want sex and blow jobs but not the actual person who delivers such ecstasy. Cretins. How old is this Blaire? Is she a teenager who is learning the dating ropes?

I used to never even tell friends when I had a new beau until I was sure he was going to stick around. Ouch that would hurt like hell to have the entire world, and worse the very object of my affection reading about our "relationship". Great post.
