What should i do?

My bf thinks that I’ve been acting weird lately because I’m a bit secretive on my phone
( whenever I’m on SW) and he asked me if I was hiding something. I have my phone unlocked and he can check whenever he wants but I have the feeling that he thinks I’m cheating on him, which I’m absolutely not.
It’s just that I am hiding my SW account from him, I feel that he wouldn’t understand this site and that he would probably be mad if he saw what I posted ☹
What should I do? Am I a terrible gf for keeping this from him? Should I show him my SW account? Delete my account altogether?

Be as brutally honest as possible, I need to hear some tough advice 😣

It is an odd site with many different things going on but if you have nothing to hide just tell him, if you aren’t on dating apps or anything like that all you fear is the fear of telling him.

I have a complicate history of “dating apps” and my ex, there are plenty of people in those sites that aren’t looking to date they just like the ego rubs, or they have ppl they have talked to on them for years, much like I’m sure some people are here. Just tell him, be like my phone isn’t locked you can look at anything you want this is just my time killer site and it’s people I’ve talked to for a long time yet i feel safer talking to them there than texting them… stuff like that.

@Adamjoshua you’re right papi, I’m gonna have to figure out how to tell him that’s it’s more like an online diary/forum and show him that it’s not a dating site
To ease his mind and show him that I’m not cheating ☹
Adamjoshua · 18-21, M
@Ashly your profile says you are in a relationship,
You don’t have any pics up, mb change the one you have on your profile now lol, put like “not looking for a relation im in one, not looking for. (Enter anything else here).


Or you could do the ultimate boss move and just tell him to make an account here (then of course make 2nd secret account for yourself no no i k id i kid lol)
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Adamjoshua umm… wow 😂
Thank you tho, I’ll have to think about this 🫂☹
Stevenneedsdiscipline · 18-21, M
@mama you should delete him a relationship is nothing without trust
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Stevenneedsdiscipline I fully trust him, but it does look sus when I’m not fully honest with him about this site ☹
Adamjoshua · 18-21, M
@Stevenneedsdiscipline i think you missed the target with that comment
Elessar · 31-35, M
It's not like you're hiding an OnlyFans 🤷🏻‍♂

Go in the clear. "This is the site where I post when I need to rant"
Jasmime · 26-30, F
Just play with him on bed
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Jasmime 😑
Jasmime · 26-30, F
@Ashly haha joking messaged you just check that
SirLirkALot · 46-50, M
tell him the truth about us 👀
Panamared · 70-79, M
Are you sexting
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Panamared no lol 😂
AmberDuponte · 31-35, F
Tell him. Not too sure about letting your partner do that though, especially on here. My partner had hear of this but never seen it. She too thought I was being secretive, then I showed her.

The term "..batshit crazy.." came from her mouth.

Now she understands!

🤣

i would describe it as your private online diary. ask him is anything else causing him to feel insecure and paranoid
Ashly · 26-30, F
@1490wayb that’s a great way to put it, I’ll definitely talk to him later today 😕
You don't have to do anything. If he can't respect that you have something in your life he's not part of and can't trust you that you're not cheating, that's his problem and for him to figure out how to get a grip on his insecurity.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@NerdyPotato it sounds harsh papi but if I didn’t feel the need to hide anything then why am I hiding SW from him? ☹
@Ashly that's something worth figuring out before talking to him about it. Getting that clear for yourself will greatly help explaining it to him. And although it still remains up to him to deal with it, an explanation will make that easier for him.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@NerdyPotato I know papi, you’re right ☹😔
Oneofthestormboys · 56-60, M
If this is something that you enjoy and get positive vibes from, then you should absolutely keep your account going. You put it perfectly in another answer that it’s like a diary for you, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Plus you get to “meet” people from all over the world, which can only be a good thing. That’s what I think for what it’s worth.

I don't think it's his business really. We all need some privacy and a little independence that is just ours. I find it invasive when couples need to know every single move the other one takes. We aren't each others parents. But that is me.

I don't think you should delete it or show him if you are not comfortable with it. But you could explain it to him and hopefully he will accept that.
DownTheStreet · 56-60, M
Asset yourself: tell him he should be thankful he gets your attention when he does, and mind his own business
Pretzel · 70-79, M
Figure out what he is hiding from you

Better yet, tell him you aren't cheating on him and you have certain areas that are private.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Pretzel he’s gonna think I’m hiding something 😕
I’ll try to explain things as best as i can.
Pray for me 🙏🏻
Younameit · F
Tell him that you’re on an online forum to share your personal thoughts , and that you don’t want to share about it because those are your very personal thoughts. He should understand
Cj4now · MNew
If you’re acting secretive you can’t be surprised if he asks if you’re hiding something.
Take it as a good sign he actually asked you and didn’t go snooping in your phone, that actually shows trust imo, not the opposite.

Be honest and tell him you’re on here, if he can’t handle that then it’s his problem, but right now? Can’t blame him for asking can you.

Only an opinion of course.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Cj4now I’ll have to think about what to say, thank you for your advice tho 🫂🥹
Cj4now · MNew
@Ashly you’re very welcome. Honesty is generally the best policy. Not always, but it usually is. Good luck.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Cj4now thank you papi 🫂
I don't know him, so I don't know the best advice to give.

But maybe consider either giving a break of SW, or consider figuring the best way to tell him about SW and our dance moves.

I think everyone deserves privacy and for me, keeping my phone and computers password-locked, as a routine, is part of that boundary.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@justmeonline I have my phone unlocked for that reason, so that he can see whatever he wants to show that I’m not doing anything wrong. ☹
justmeonline · 51-55, M
@Ashly I don't think he should have to see anything. You both should trust each other enough. Just my opinion ☺
Busybee333 · 31-35, F
Sit him up pn a quiet moment, take a deep breath and just say it as it is. The truth. Anything that comes is better than letting the issue grow in silcence. I hope your bf is open to understand and explain his worries too. Communication and effective listening does help! Crossing fingers for you two! ♥
Px4545 · 31-35, M
Idk why you hide the fact that you are on SW. You have the right to have privacy, would be the same if.it was in reverse.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Px4545 I know I should. I just need to think about what to say
And then to tell him, I don’t want to upset him either
Px4545 · 31-35, M
@Ashly yeah of course, I hope everything ends well
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Px4545 🫂
Adamjoshua · 18-21, M
Mb stop calling every guy on here papi is a good start, not sure but that’s usually like the “yes daddy” thing which isn’t my thing at all but yah mb stop that
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Adamjoshua ok papi 🤣
Bang5luts · M
I dont know. Tell him it's your comfort place to be yourself while remaining anonymous. 🤷🏻‍♂
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Bang5luts I don’t think he’s buy that ☹
Neuman · M
i think its one of those things where you have to consider how youd react and feel if the roles were reversed. i suspect its a somewhat to fairly bad sign that you feel the need to hide sw. not that i don't understand, just having things you can't find a way to talk about tends to grind on and undermine relationships
Tell him you post on an online forum and it's just a little thing you like having that's just "yours" like a journal of sorts and that you definitely understand no circumstances ever showed us your butthole.^•^

That should make him less worried 🙈
Ashly · 26-30, F
@DancingStarGoddess that’s a great way to put it Queen, i might have to delete some posts/ comments before i show him my account 😅
@Ashly 🙌🏾 I'd say take down whatever feels sort of iffy (like my goofy comment) and leave the good stuff ^•^
Ashly · 26-30, F
@DancingStarGoddess he knows I’m a clown 🤡 😂
But yea, some stuff id rather delete then explain 😅
Sapio · 51-55, M
Don't delete your account. We like having you here.

I'd wait till he mentions something and then go about explaining SW. Till then, keep it private if you wish.

You have a right to privacy and to be trusted.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@Sapio 🫂
I could try mentioning it to him, explaining how it’s like an online forum of sorts. To show that I’m not cheating or doing anything wrong ☹
Why hide anything? And if it makes him mad, wtf??? Is this how you want to be forever, feeling like you have to hide things?
Ashly · 26-30, F
@nonsensiclesnail this place is not necessarily a good place 😅And idk how he’d reacts to this community or to what I’ve been posting 🫣
@Ashly this place can be trash.
empanadas · 31-35, M
Tell him the true that this is a site you go on to blow off steam and get laughs with the occasional advise post. Show him your inbox and delete any old posts you might think would upset him. Dont let this place get in the way of your relationship. It's really not worth it
Ashly · 26-30, F
@empanadas that might work, and yes I’d have to delete a ton of messages and comments 😅
But at the same time I don’t want to hide who I am, like I wouldn’t feel comfortable editing my posts just to please him
empanadas · 31-35, M
@Ashly i get you as long as you dont have anything that would cause him to be upset. Then say this is your fourm to express yourself. Nothing else, also if he keeps throwing the cheating thing up...it is a red flag. dude is likely cheating or thinking of it. Wish you luck in your relationship because the dating market is shit. If dude is a good dude than just be honest and he should understand.
Ashly · 26-30, F
@empanadas I know this place isn’t the most reputable website 😅 but there’s some stuff I’d rather him not see.

Nothing in the sense of cheating, just some things I don’t think he’d understand.

I don’t think he’s cheating but who really knows? I’ll have to talk to him either tonight or tomorrow but I’m not looks forward to it. 🥺
