for me it depends, i frequent the same chat room all the time, the people in that room, most know me and have met me socially, they have seen who i am with, so although they know who i am with, and some of what i get up to as its been in a club, i require discretion when it comes down to what i've been doing, i dont think they need to know the ins and outs of it all blow by blow.
i am very discreet about the people i play with as i know most of them require this.
does this make sense, i think what i am trying to say is because of the social nature of the chat room and a lot of us using the same place, part of it isnt really discreet.
but in all other aspects i am very discreet and expect the same in return.
Personally i have no problem who knows who i see and to some fellow munchers now it's pretty clear to see.
One thing i have and will do is ask first before i say anything and any thing i do tell is quite vague and only to those who i trust.
I also allways ask before posting anything that may let out who i see in the forums.
It's one of those topics where it's different for each individual and so better to ask first and find out what is ok and what is not.
ive found so many who do not appear to have clue about discretion.
i often find myself in the chat room and people will drop hints to make it plain they have met me or chatted in private about me.
i tend to not tell anyone my name now, far to often have people "slipped" up and said my name or where i live openly in the chat room.
ive even had guys send me pics i have never asked for saying... this is a pic of me with xxxxx and xxxxx shagging the mrs so you can see im genuine :shock:
no what i can see is you cant be trusted.
sometimes the discretion has been broken in a stupid way .. i get a pm from someone asking what xxxxx is like as they are considering meeting them and my name was given to pass reference :shock: again this i dont mind IF i have been asked first.
never kiss and tell, unless the person is a complete fake and stupid enough to give my name as verification, well theve given me licence to talk and tell them what a prat the guy is lol
xxxx fem xxx
But why is it different? That's what i was getting at. Why is it not ok to talk about who and what we did? Why is it still private, intimate, personal, behind closed doors (even when it's not!) ?
it seems terribly ... British for want of a better word!
