Do you share Mylot with your spouse/partner?

Sometimes I have a hard time communicating. I find it difficult to say how I feel, and oddly enough it's difficult just to say "I love you". This has been a problem I've had for many years, but I'm trying to work through it.
My husband and I were having a conversation last night, and he said he'd like to know how I spoke about him when he wasn't around, so that he could get a better understanding of how I truly felt. So I dug up an old discussion from about a week ago that I started. The entire discussion was basically about how much I loved him and what a wonderful person he was. I let him read the discussion, and it made him feel good.
Do you let your partner read the things you say about them here on Mylot, or is this a personal area for you that you don't invite them into?

I can identify with you on this, I find it extremely difficult to say I love you, my hubby has always had to say it first and sometimes it gets to him that I never say it to him. He sometimes will not tell me and deliberately waits for me to say it first, he ends up waiting a long time. I too have had this problem for years and it is not his fault but it is just the way that I am. In answer to your question I do not share here with him much, I do tell him things though but I never really show him my discussions or anything.

Ya know, we really do have a lot in common. I wonder if we are long lost twins on the opposite side of the world? LOL

I laugh each time I see one of your discussions as it is like reading something I have thought about! LOL

if my husband asked to see it i would show him. i really don't think i've started any discussions that involved him except for tips to help him quit smoking. i do share about discussions i respond to though. i talk about it alot. i try to share what i do on the internet so he isn't worrying about what i'm doing.

I've done that as well, but not because I worry what he thinks I'm doing, but more or less because other than the kids, I have nothing to talk about.

I leave my computer switched on and myLot up on screen, so my hubby could take a look when ever he wanted. I don't think he's interested though, which suits me fine actually. Not that there's anything here I'd not want him to see, but it saves explaining it if there's anything he didn't realise or doesn't understand.

Well my partner is on mylot too, and she can easily read my discussions. I have nothing to hide from her, so I don't care if she reads my discussions. But for me its rather easy to communicate with her, so its not hard to tell her how I feel on a daily basis
