Do you discuss your hobbing with your friends, family or co-workers?

No way Jose!

Nope. Have friends that would enjoy the hell out of the stories, but sadly, they're all friends with my SO (and probably like her more than they do me). So I've had to keep it my little secret.

FUCK NO! I think I'll save my disownment for a later time in life.

ab so fucking lutely not !

I discuss it with thebfriend that told me to get an eccie account and you Fucks. ( that was meant with love)

Looks like 80% of you are fucking morons...but that's no surprise...

Two friends know I hobby. They don't know details and neither is a true "beard." But you have to be able to call someone in an emergency, and it's better if that person has some idea in advance about what you do and why the emergency needs to be (a) dealt with properly and (b) kept quiet.

I won't even tell myself that I hobby. Does that mean I am in denial? Originally Posted by TryWeakly

No, of course not.

That would be my main worry. I know most men are married so how would one ensure that his SO never finds out if he discusses this with his buddies.

I feel very fortunate to have more than a few people in my life that know that I provide. These people are ones I share the closest relationships with.

I think nowadays, people of a certain age and in certain circles are way more open to this idea then previous generations.

A few friends, very close, of course, know that from time to time I enjoy the company of a lady who gives me her tome in exchange for some cash.

But I keep mu hobby a secret, for the most part.

Just out of curiosity, do you discuss your "hobby" with your male counterparts?

Friends?
Family?
Co-workers?

Does anyone know you hobby?

I keep my hobby life completely separate from my real-world life. I never talk about it with others not on this forum.



Looking forward your replies, guys! Originally Posted by Brooke Wilde

Nope.
Hobby is more of a fantasy life vs real world.
Some things are better just kept to yourself .....

Been hobbying for ten years with the same 3 UTR providers.
Have never told a soul.

Don't even tell my priest.
