I am excited y'all! My husband said he get's why I love it here so much now. I read him a few of my discussions and my husband said I get it now. He said, it earns a little money, keeps you busy on times when everything else is done and it gives you adults to talk to!
I am so excited he finally see's why I love it here so much!
I'm done now, just wanted to share that with everyone since I'm so happy about it! He see's the MyLot light now...

He's only getting it now?
From what I have read, he was getting it at least 5 times a week, and twice on Sundays!

Earlier she said it had taken him two years to get it
It appears that having a crush can work wonders for everyone concerned

yup, same here. well, at least about the money part. i have been fortunate because i have used the money i make on here to buy little things for our daughters for Christmas (now i will be working on stuff for Easter as i will be getting payout for December) and stuff for myself and my hubby has defended me earning money on her to my daughters (when they are too lazy to make supper, etc).

That's good! Making a little extra sure does help a lot. And so does having friends from all over the world! =-) My husband used to get upset when I was here a lot until last night, I was just so happy because now he knows why I'm here so much and why I love it!

The fact that you both get paid confirms that myLot is indeed an honest site. It makes me feel good to be here. Thanks for sharing guys :)

Hi LMB !
It is nice to hear that finally your husband could understand why do you come on mylot and what you gain while discussing various issues with fellow mylotters.
Now he has understood and given you his consent to be here, you could enjoy your time as and when you feel like.
All the best.

Yeah I am so happy he get's it now. =) Before he would get a little upset because he could not understand why I was here or what I was doing. Now he feels more secure and I am glad he checked it out for himself...

Ugh, I lost my entire response to you but here it goes again...
I hope your son will see the MyLot light soon! It took my husband 2 years and now he finally gets it. He knew I was here but didn't know what it was all about. I willingly told him about a few discussions and that is when he said I get why your always on there now. He said its great that your getting to socialize with different people and make a little money too! =)Hopefully one day your son will get it too.

Hatley, isn't this the same son who fixes your computer woes all the time? Surely he has to see that you are so upbeat and positive, and that you're able to pay for some of your extras.

My boyfriend thinks that myLot is a bit odd. He's seen a few of the more garbled posts on here, so he sort of wonders about the appeal this site has for me. However, he realizes that I do get some money out of it, and I could be up to far worse things--not that I ever would.

It is great when husband's finally understand us and why we do the things we do. Randy had wondered why I am on here a lot and I had told him to talk to to people and to also find other sites that pay. I am also into crafting and I get ideas from here as well. I love being able to share with my friends and have learned from them. It is great to know that I am not alone and that there are people who have the same troubles as I do and can relate to what I am going through. Randy has Type 2 diabetes and I know there are other mylotters who have Type 2 diabetes or know of someone who does which makes it good because we are able to share stories and give each other help and guidance.

Yes it is. It is so awesome that we all come from different walks of life but we can still enjoy each other so much here and learn so much from one another! I love it here and I am so happy he finally gets it. It took two years but hey, better late than never! =)

That is great news! So many partners often wonder why we can be so transfixed and totally consumed in Mylot, and some will even joke about it and unless they fully understand what you get out of Mylot then they will never see the fascination. I could never confide deeply with my ex, well not as much as I open up here on Mylot, many times I got the support and advice I sought, when in reality it should have come from my ex. My therapist appreciates that I have Mylot to turn to, I see her once a week, and I tell her what support I get at Mylot and she appreciates it and is happy to see me 'communicating'

I am so happy! I never thought it would happen but he has surprised me yet again. Lol. It took two years but better late than never I guess! =)
I open up more on MyLot than anywhere else too. My husband knows mostly everything about me but there are some things that I only share here...
That is good that your therapist thinks being here is a good thing too. =)

You are right, it is never too late for something good. Being able to discuss things over with other people offline as well as online is a certainly a good thing. It can often relieve us from our burden :)

It is nice to know that your husband understands. Mine doesn't and complains all the time about how much I am on the computer. He sure doesn't complain when I have gift cards and things so we can go do things.

My husband used to do the same thing. Why don't you ever get off that computer? But now that I showed him all I do here and everything he said he finally gets it! I am so glad he does, its a relief that I don't have to explain to him all the time why I'm on here...
And I am sure he does not complain about the good things that come out of MyLot...

If my wife were the one giving me the good things she got from myLot, I wouldn't complain, but I would give her a few extra kisses instead :))

I'm so happy for you! I'm still working on my boyfriend, but he's glad to see that I'm able to earn a few extra dollars when we need it! Sometimes I just need to vent, and that makes him happy that I have someone else to talk to!

My boyfriend doesn't really mind; he always asks me what I'm typing but he never looks over my shoulder. He DOES enjoy having a bit of extra funds coming in, but I can't imagine NOT coming here to see my friends. I hope that he gets it the same way your husband does!

That is a big fat "NO"! I would not allow it, where else can I vent about him when I need to? Besides he is a REALLY slow typer so one response would take him an hour to write! Lol.
I did not suggest that to him and I wouldn't either. Haha.

I didn't believe it the first time when somebody told me about a site that paid one for participating in a discussion. Never knew such thing existed. I am glad I checked myLot out and like it here :)

Yehey to that! We have a new mylotter. Congratulations to him and to you for being able to convince him. Hope you'll have plenty of fun both of you here in mylot.

Oh no he is not joining, he just understands why I love it here so much now... I would never be okay with him joining here!

You have a point, if you and your husband both are so involved in myLot, some house works are very likely to get neglected :))

Yes I am happy too. I don't want him having an account here because I share a lot here...this is my personal online journal so I don't want him here too honestly... It would make it weird for me.

Yes, that kind of weird feeling exists quite commonly in some families. Some family members feel more comfortable to confide their problems in their friends or doctors. In a way it's good, because we sometimes need unbiased input from third parties.

He is a good one most of the time! He has his moments too... Lol. I'm just glad he gets it now and doesn't think I am just wasting time...

Thats awesome he sees how much you love it here and why. I remember mylotting when my husband lived here but I dont think I was as active at all. I was pretty obsessed with facebook at the time. Mylot is such an awesome site. I am so glad I found out about this site 6 years ago.

I couldn't help but laugh at your last statement here about your husband seeing the MyLot light.
That said, do you think that it would be possible for you to have your husband call my husband and explain to him why I am so incredibly addicted to mylot. You see, my husband doesn't seem to get it at all and he really should. He should realize that if it wasn't for mylot and the other sites that I work with that I would have had to have asked him for money for Christmas shopping and our children wouldn't have had much of a Christmas this year.

I was hoping it would make someone laugh! =)
I know my husband, he would definitely do that for you! And knowing my husband he might throw in there that we could be b*tching to them instead of doing it here when we vent... Might change his mind a little bit!

I am so happy for you. I could never get my husband to hang around here or even just read my discussion. He's not into this and i just have to live with that. I'm just contented that he allows me to spend as much time as i want on mylot. Not that he's complaining.

It took my husband a while to understand why I enjoy it here so much but I'm glad he finally gets it now. Before that he'd always ask why I'm on the computer so much. So I'm glad he finally gets it. It just makes things easier for me!

I have been encouraging my wife to check out myLot and be involved. She seems to be interested but has yet to make time for it :)

That's good! Sometimes all someone needs is a little encouragement. =-) Maybe one day she will decide to check it out too.
