Does it bother you when you open up on chat boards, as in offer up informationb about yourself or offer advice based upon your real life experiences and there are others who post often that don't even offer a first name? KWIM Alex?

Re: Online Chat Boards
No, though maybe it should? A lot of people do really open up, but that is their choice to do so. I can understand that some people would want to remain anon for many valid reasons.
Plus, a person can give a first name, but who knows if it is their real one?

It doesn't bother me...But i think it is a little weird. ESPECIALLY here when some of us know our DH's first names much less ours

Re: Online Chat Boards
not really....it seems there are people who only want to hear about your life and will never tell a soul anything about theirselves. but then there are those that post away about all kinds of personal business and get offended when it is used against them. i try not to post too much about myself, but not b/c i'm hiding something, just that i believe there is such a thing as too much information and you never know who's reading this...

Re: Online Chat Boards
I voted no:
The never know whos reading this freaks me out. I didnt use my name for a while because of this and my name is very original, so if you saw it you pretty much knew it was me. But I did feel I was kind of betraying those of you who answered me and gave so much personal info. So I gave in.
