Being added by a provider to Google+ Circles

What do you think about being added to a providers Google+ circle where other members of her circle (hobbyists) can see your identity.

Real identity? If so, dumb and amateurish.
Was added by her using my gmail address. Blocked/denied her request but not real happy about being added..

I hope you didn't give her your social security #,bank accounts and passwords while you were at it.

Only one person that you shouldn't be happy with

Don't ever give out your real identity! Good luck trying to explain why pimpda ddY1 and slap-a-hoe-69 are in your circle.

There is no limit to how many free Google accounts you can have. I strongly recommend you create a fake one for the hobby. Do not link it to you or any of your other accounts and then you can join all the providers circles you want with no worries.

No bueno--no appropriate. May have been a mistake with all of this automated stuff.

Holy cow. GMail accounts are free and nearly disposable. You can even log in to multiple accounts at the same time on the same computer. There's no reason not to have a separate e-mail address (or six) for hobbying.

And do not have Google Chrome open when using a hobby e-mail. Some functions in that try to add it to the e-mail registers it collects so it better serves you. I simply prefer to be served by a waitress thank you.

I blocked her, I was just suprised that she did it.. I dont think it was proper for her do that..
I don't see anything wrong with. That's why you make an email for hobbying and one for work only. I have a real email account and one for playtime. I talk to lot of my clients on Google. Its just me I guess. Do whatever makes you happy.

Totally indiscreet, and totally inappropriate. Having a separate hobby email still doesn't justify adding you to a group where everyone in the group can see everyone else.

She said that it just popped up asking her if she wanted to add me and she tried to click no, but she was on an iPhone and the screen is so small it clicked yes instead. She apologized profusely. She even offered an extra 15 minutes to our next session, which I declined because I could barely handle the full hour with her, (she is a total PSE).

Long story short, it wasn't her fault and it was one of my fake accounts so all was good and I still see her whenever I'm in her city.
If your Google+ account is set on public, then why you getting upset at her?
...rookie move on your part for not having a hobby email.
Lol...now Go to your settings, set them on private for people in your circles only.

Fricken ridiculous
