I'm not worried about it, no one knows my username, and even if they did, I haven't said anything that would offend anyone mmmm I hope I haven't
I'm a nutter too.
However, these days, I almost WANT MIL to find me. So she can read exactly what I think of her. I held my tongue too much with her and took the "high road" and for what?
But yeah, I get ya.
I'm not worried...even though I've posted lots of pics, I don't think I've ever posted something that I wouldnt care if someone saw. I'm pretty candid with most people I know anyway.
Not incredibly worried, but it has crossed my mind as we're still in the incognito/haven't officially annouced it yet phase so having someone discover my little secret too soon could be awkward, but not the end of the world.
Once it's public knowledge? Yeah, not going to worry about it any more than anything else I put online :)
@Just_Squeeze: I feel ya on the MIL thing. I almost wish sometimes people would look at things form another POV.
I have done my best to makesure that my real life is not linked to my WB account. I wanted to pictures of some of the wedding details up but some of them would definitely identify me. I like this account to be "anonymous" that way I can feel free to share as I please.
Nope. I'm not worried about it at all. I'm hoping his mother does find out and realize she dressed like a prom queen whore at his little brothers wedding and wouldn't dare showing up to our wedding like that. lol
My UserName is my site/business name (stupid of me to do that), so yes, I'm worried about that and this is one of the reasons why I do not post in some threads even though I would like to do that
I've changed my username! I feel it's necessary to be anonymous. I am too paranoid that someone will know it's me. I don't know why because I never said anything bad about anyone or self-destructing with my old name, but I would be so embarrassed regardless of that.
I have a question..... does that include meeting people off of here? We are talking about having a local meetup... Just curious
Not that worried. U know small family drama, but I dont think it would stop anyone from liking me or anything.hmmm, I could be wrong.Who knows.
But I do post alot of wedding ideas and I dont want people to see it beforehand.So yeah thats something that would suck.
I found a coworker on here. But I didn't say anything because then I would have to out myself! 
I'm careful about posting pics.
Eh, not really. I don't post anything that's too identifying, but I did back in the day. So, I had support take all my pictures down for me, and I am now more careful. Honestly, I'm not so afraid of the people I actually know as I am people trying to glean info from me for identity theft purposes. It's really amazing/disturbing the lengths people will go...
I don't care if anyone finds me... the only person I've ever said anything negative about was my FI and he knows how I feel about his new job so he wouldn't be surprised. LoL
I'm a little worried. I think I've given away a number of details that people who know would be able to put together. But I also don't think I've shared anything to out there I wouldn't share with people anyway. And anything I wouldn't want someone finding out, I post incognito. Now that I said that....if you know me, you'll have to figure out which undercover name I use if you want to know my deep dark secrets :)
I never worry about it, especially since my username is the same as my email, but I don't write anything that would make my mother blush as she reads the boards occasionally ( Hi MOM!). Sometimes DH gets on here also and reads the boards (he thinks I only know about the times when he reads it with me, but funny how he know things about the boards that go on when I am at work - BUUUUSTEEEED)
I know Mrs. Cardigan IRL! We went to high school together, and she definitely knows I am on here seeing as how my screen name is my part of my real name and we used to get together every once and a while over margaritas and giggle about the bee. :P
Other than that the only thing I am worried about is my fiance googling my name and coming across pictures of my dress. But I don't post anything else that I would care about other people seeing.
Nah, I don't care. I don't think anyone from my RL even knows weddingbee exists, and if they found me on here, no biggie.
Now that we are TTC, that makes me more nervous then wedding stuff. Also reading through some of my rediculous posts that seemed like a big deal at the time, are a little embarassing now.
I don't think anyone other than my FI knows I use WB. But I do get paranoid that somehow someone might figure out who I am. If I post something personal I usually change dates, names etc so people will get the jist of what I'm saying but hopefully people can't say "OH that's.... from ......".
I'm a very private person and don't like to cause/start drama. But unless you vent at work which starts drama where else can I feel safe to vent about wedding prep or work days etc.
Im not worried about it. I really dont care if someone from real life were to discover this was me. I have nothing to hide, and nothing I have said on here I havent or wouldnt say in real life.
I do a little bit. WB, for me, is a place to talk about things that would be inapropriate/embarassing to talk about with people irl, and it's a place to get honest opinions from people who aren't terrified of hurting your feelings, like friends usually are.
Nothing lifeshattering would happen if someone found out it was my account, but I would really rather keep it anonymous.
Nope, I make sure to only post things on here I would be comfortable having the people who know me IRL read
I just had a slight freak out about this the other day, and I deleted all of my identifying pictures. I don't know why, but as soon as we started TTC (and just had a chemical pregnancy), I feel the need to be super private. No one IRL knows we're even trying, and I have a real sneaky sister (seriously, she should be a PI!) and I just have this nagging feeling that I'm about to be found!
I use WB like a diary so I'd be kinda embarassed if someone found me!
haha, yes I kind of am!
A recently-engaged friend of mine was talking about how she had some difficulties with buying a dress from China, and I was like, "wow, you should check out WB; you can learn tons about which vendors (from China) have good reps, and other helpful wedding planning stuff!"
And she was like, "oh yeah, I know, the girls on there are so helpful..."
And then I thought to myself, "I wonder if she would recognize me if she saw a post of mine? And then would she tell me?"
haha I found this site because of a friend, I liked it and joined. She just told me that she had joined and I was like oh no will she find me on here? I looked back at my posts to see if there was anything I didn't want her to see and there really wasn't lol so now we know each other's Bee Names lol
yeah, I'd rather people didn't find me! but if they do, there's not that much to be embarrassed about as i'm honest anyway, but more honest on here than just with acquaintances. but all my close friends know all about me anyway!
My username is my real name, but I'm not worried at all. The first reason is the absence of any other Croatian/Indonesian bride in here (maybe that's why I chose this site? :P) the second reason is simply because I don't think I post anything offensive (so far I haven't had anything bad I'd needed to share), and the last but not least is that basically all people around us have known about our wedding and have started planning and saving for the (expensive/faraway) plane tickets.
I would certainly prefer that no one recognized me! Especially since TTC and getting pregnant. I do not want people to know yet.
And I like being able to talk about embarrasing things that I don't talk about in real life.
On that note: I have recognized a member's fiance before. We all live in that same small town and I was friends with him in HS. Luckily she is never on anymore, so I don't feel like I have to dodge her.
I haven't posted pictures because of that ... so, yep - I'm in the slightly paranoid camp.
Yea, I'm scared of that. I have an obvious name... and I post pictures all the time. My FSIL is getting married in March so I think she may find WB. We'll see! I keep trying to stop posting, but I won't start work for another 2 weeks... so I've been bored lately!
LOL, I didn't before but then a co-worker jumed on the Bee at work and was rooting around the Galleries. I was like "Oh God...was she on here during my bitchy preggo days? That would be so embarrassing!"

Are you ever paranoid that someone from 'real life' will discover you on here?
I'm SUPER paranoid, because i've found some other friends accidentally on their chat-boards. I'm careful with linking vendors - people may google them, and what you said might show up. Also i'm careful not to put distinguishing pics of myself on here. Maybe i'm super paranoid...anyone else? Am i the only nutter?
