DH knows about GN and I tell him about certain threads and we laugh together over some of the funny things that have been recounted.

Dh knows and shows some interest in happenings but I don't talk about gn to anyone else except in a general way.

Ann you know you can offload on here - maybe counter productive! Or pm one of us. I'm happy to 'listen'.

My DH doesn't know much about it. He does know I have a few GN friends and also that I play the games, as I often burst out laughing at some of the posts. I have mentioned the sadness and pain on here recently , as it has affected me.
Apart from that, he is not in the least bit interested.

I do share a lot of my Gransnet life with my DH and he has even asked me how various people are getting on or what was the conclusion about a particular thread. I don't share with anyone else as I don't think they would either be interested or as annsixty said wouldn't understand. My sister has a huge friendship group (how lucky) whereas I have no friends in real life. I feel great comfort knowing that I can talk over many problems with some lovely people on GN who understand.

My husband has no interest in social media of any kind so doesn't really take any notice but I do tell him some things that have come up in discussions or show him videos on FB. It's not really secret more like apathy on his part grin

No, they wouldn't be interested for the most part.

Have a secret life on Gransnet?
Do you all share with your partner and family all the things that happen here?
My H would no longer understand but even when he did he wouldn't have been interested and would not have understood the concept of talking to strangers and then just how involved we become in each other's lives.
I could not share with him all the sadness that is happening on here and I find that very hard for me as I long to share to help me with my feelings for my virtual friends.
I think he has become withdrawn but I now realise he has never been a sharing person.
