Recently shared this site w my WH. Showed him how to sign on, post, pointed out a few sites.

You can see by signature our current status.

He is concerned about others knowing we are M, and the possibility that the fact may influence the way others respond.

Me? I like the idea. I'm prepared for honesty, as I feel it's necessary for healing and growth. particularly for me, since I have an insane tendency to 'bottle up'. I like it bc he used to be so open w his thoughts and emotions... thought a place to open, to encourage openess, to practice it, would be as good for him as I anticipate (no, have found) it is for me.

Thanks for your comments

It's a huge hinderance unless you are in recovery. For instance, if you go into Plan B, you won't be able to post here anymore if your WS is posting here. You could easily lose MB as a support system if you bring him in too early.

On the other hand, we can often talk some sense into some WSes so it can help in the long run.

perhaps, then, I will find a way to post and interact under a different name.

any hints on that?

Also, I hope I don't have to move to a PlB. still not able to tell at this point, tho...
Just hope not.

I was hoping for more reponses before I posted on this thread, but....

Do YOU feel you can be completely honest here, posting, knowing surround will be reading? If Yes, no need to do anything other than continue posting.

JMHO.
