clucky1 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 This is a bit of drivvle really BUT I am really angry as I have just found out that my hubby has been spying on my omlet chat when he is at work (he obviously hasn't got enough work on) I posted a couple of days ago about my quest to add two beautiful buff orpingtons to my flock of six girlies. My husband (whom somehow had remembered my user name and then looked for my postings - how sad and AMAZING that he has a memory) looked up my postings and hey presto, he found out about the prospect of the increase in numbers. I told him last night that our little darlings wouldn't have to be increased if it wasn't for the fact that he is flogging all our eggs to his work colleages and I am not getting a look in. ANYWAY - If you are reading this hubby - I am OFF to buy myself some very exspensive perfume which I have had my eye on for a while ! ***Excuses to all innocent viewers for my letting off steam and rambleings.

Shirl Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Good for you. God forbid that my OH should read some of my postings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 rumbled Tell him (or he can read it himself) that as hes such an avid reader of the forum he obviously loves chickens so much you need to get some more just for him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina C Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 At least it wasn't your boss - mine has been asking about eglus - hope he does not discover this forum My OH said to me the other night that he sometimes feels there are three of us in this relationship - I did not have the heart to tell him, 'No, actually its you, me and 3,317 others.....'

Guest Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 my DH has been reading my posts from day 1, I'm not too bothered I just wish he'd sign up for his own user name! He just likes to read the forum though rather than post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenlass Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Oh no!!!! Is no where sacred any more? PS What perfume did you get?? I reckon he should dig deep and get you the body lotion and bath oil in it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsCube Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Yes I discovered the other day my OH has been on and read some of my posts too, as one of his co-workers was asking about Eglus. Still like its said it means he is interested in your girls, so more reason to get more!!! Shame on him for exploiting your girls eggs though.

Guest Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 My DH occasionally visits, but really this is MY world and you are MY friends. I don't mind him reading the harsh truth because I don't keep secrets, but I'm glad he doesn't visit too often. It was especially annoying when he kept reading out threads that i was trying to read myself!! He really needs to find a job!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clucky1 Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 Well I have just got my 6 little darling 'girlies' into their pen useing bribery of raisins and sunflower seeds. They seemed very cooperative today and they eyed me with a 'knowing look of support'. I am off now to buy the perfume. For all of those you whom have a nose it is: Aqua di Palma/ 'Iris "Ooops, word censored!"le' Oh Hell ! and Maybe lunch with champers as well! (hubby expect fishfingers and mash tonight - and that's if you are lucky) ! Bye !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tessa the Duchess Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I would be seriously furious if my DH or anybody spied on me in any way whatsoever No wonder the forum keeps on crashing from overuse, all those spying partners creeping around Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Good for you! I would be furious too, after all, he questioning his trust for you - if he wasn't, he'd have told you that he was logging on. Phil isn't the slightest bit interesting in forums of any sort.

Jules. Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I have shown my last manger my posts Hello Alex ( & Chris!) if you're reading. I do try to be mindful of what I write- I write nothing that I would not want my children to read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tessa the Duchess Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I do try to be mindful of what I write- I write nothing that I would not want my children to read. I think we are all fairly restrained in our postings bearing in mind that this is a family forum I don't want to get all serious here, in fact clucky1's post made me laugh when I first read it The fact is that some people turn to the NB to get advice on very personal problems, relationships, medical issues etc., whilst this is a bit risky as anybody can log on as a guest and read the postings, for a partner to do so in a sneaky way is just wrong, wrong Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I will sometimes "invite" CTB to have a look if there's something funny or cute photos - other than that he wouldnt dream of nosing. It's the same with his canoe forum - I wouldnt start being nosy there (but then from what he's shown me that looks very boring anyway ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I don't know why some people would think this is a big deal, I certainly wouldn't have any problems if my other half was spying on my conversations because I have nothing to hide! You should be able to feel comfotable about being open, honest and talking to your loved ones about anything. I don't talk about anything to anyone without feeling perfectly fine with my partner reading or finding out about it. My partner is usually the first person I discuss thoughts, projects or anything with! It's sad, but I trust no one and people in online forums get a very limited blurry glimpse into my little world because you just never know who's about!

bronze Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I don't have anything to hide either but its the checking up on someone that I don't like. I regularly recount bits to dh or show him pictures I wouldnt even mind if he logged on but if I had found out he was checking up on me surreptitiously then I would be cross.

Guest Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Welcome to the digital age... You wouldn't have had these problems 20 years ago and it has been the cause of many a break up for some people... The benefits of the internet far outweigh the drawbacks in my opinion. But it gives members of the public and government agencies more opportunities to snoop undetected into perfectly law abiding peoples lives.
