When you realise you know someone from bellybelly

[~Gee_Whizzy~]

i don't really 'know' the member but she is friends with other ppl that Im friends with on FB. she actually went to highschool with my DH. only reason it came up was because she'd posted on a friends wall and DH saw her name and said 'hey she was in my year level at school!' i then figured out by her blog who she was on here. i haven't told her because i don't follow her blog and don't interact with her on here.

as for anyone knowing me on here my bestie is on here and we both know about each other if anyone else knew me that's cool too. if they wanted to tell me great and if not that's fine. i don't post much info on here about myself so it wouldn't really be an issue

It's kinda strange this mentality we have with Internet stuff, we put so much out there thinking its anon when really, its not...so many people on BB I have on FB now or have interacted with via my business, so many I would love to meet IRL.
If someone came up to me and said "oh wow youre starry sky! " I think I'd be a bit chuffed, but then afterwards would be thinking oh ****! lol
I probably would approach someone if I thought I recognised them from here, or PM them to let them know I know who they are, put the ball in their court so to speak...guess it all depends on the circumstance...

i have seen someone come on here as a new member after i'd spoken to them through work (a baby loss mumma) - she wasn't around long at all. i recognised her angels name (dealing with mummas of new angels isn't something you forget).

i have met an awful lot of BB girls now - i have given up any thought of this being anon - although i think i'd get a bit wigged out if family found BB. i have IRL stalker freak inlaws - i really hope they never find me here!

I guess it's a good reminder that nothing is really private on the internet.

Please just remember that even if someone isn't an active member, the rules still apply in the way we talk to and about each other.

If the BB person the OP is talking about is who I think it is, I seriously doubt she'd mind She's referred to BB, in vague terms and in no way negative, in her blog. It's just something she moved on from and onto her blog Anything more private wouldn't have been in an area accessible to all members, or in a PSG, which come with their own disclosure understandings, anyway.
I had a BB member identify herself to me and we are now friends. I don't advertise my membership now, because like a PP says, I'm in a smaller population. No biggie if I'm 'outed' though - it's all consistent here as with my IRL!
