    Yes he does. He knows about it as you guys bring up some interesting topics and ideas, and it looked a bit weird that I was coming out with these 'ideas' and stories more than usual! He doesn't know the site name, just that it's a wedding site where I'm getting potential ideas together.

    J knows all about it. :) He was so happy for me when I became a Hostess! Sometimes I tell him some of the crazy stuff that goes on here and he reminds me how glad he is that I'm not 'wedding crazy' (I think he just doesn't realize that I take my insanity out on you guys instead of him, hahaha.....)

    Um, h$** no.  He has no idea I'm so addicted to wedding stuff or that I even look at this kind of thing.  If he knew, he would be very surprised...and probably freaked out.  Most of the time, I have this low-maintenance, casual girl vibe worked out pretty well.  Which I am in almost every other aspect of life...but this is my secret guilty pleasure.

    I haven't told him what the site is called because I don't want him to read my posts, but he knows I belong to "wedding boards".

    Nope! We agree that it's better to not talk about weddings before an engagement, so I keep this hobby on the DL. I'll happily tell him where I get my vast wedding knowledge from after e-day. :P

    My BF knows about it and finds it ammusing.  I guess he would rather me get all of my wedding talk out on here instead of talking to him about it all the time.

    Now way! This is my guilty little pleasure! Oh and ever since I got on here, he noticed that I stopped bitching and whining about wedding stuff. Its a win-win situation for the both of us! =)

    He knows that I belong to a "wedding board" and that's the extent of it... I hope. I don't want him reading my vents about anything.

    Teddy certainly does! He asked me what my screenname was one day...and I told him...he has called me Ms.Teddy ever since! Thats his cute little nickname for me now. lol. He always asks what kind of be I am today...blushing..helper etc. He gets excited when I move up! I think he is ok with it...because then he doesnt have to talk weddings with me all the time haha. and while I do weddingbee he works on his computer too so its a win win really. lol

    No, he's not even aware.  I follow so many wedding related blogs and websites for one of my jobs, he can't keep track of them all (frankly, neither can I).  LOL!!

    @ mngf and jewel00: H*** no for me too!

    I wouldn't mind if he did find out, but I just started being able to talk to him about our distant future, possibly concerning marriage. After we graduate school (undergrad this year, and grad for him next year), I think we will be able to talk about weddings more openly. He just isn't quite there yet, which is why I love Weddingbee! I get to see and talk about wedding stuff here instead of bombarding him with it.

    No way! I think he'd be totally freaked out by it. BUT in away I almost want him to see me on hear, so he can be like "oh she's serious about this whole get married thing". But, yeah he'd be weirded out I think.

    I actually don't know, but I wonder.  At some point during a discussion about how impatient I am, he started to say something about knowing that there are many others who are feeling the same way I do.  But for some reason he stopped and wouldn't tell me what he meant.  Maybe this is what he means.  I hope he wouldn't be freaked out...

    He has seen me on it SEVERAL times. It shows up in the "top sites" of our computer. I don't think he knows that I post to the boards really, but he knows about the blog and all the wedding ideas. He thinks it's weird, in his words because "we're not getting married anytime soon". *rolls eyes*

    Oh yes, he knows. I read him some of the more drama-rific posts for a chuckle and he knows my name is artichokey, which he thinks is really cute. I like teaching him all the acronyms, which he finds ridiculous and he knows that I'm a 'bee' and a 'waiting bee' with my name on a list and that someday I will graduate off the list. He doesn't read it on his own and he certainly doesn't read all of my posts.

    Oh he knows and just laughs at me.  Even though he wants a fall wedding next year he thinks I'm crazy to start planning things now (hello?  It's barely more than a year away??).  But yeah, he thinks I'm obsessed and still loves me so I know he's the one. :)

    Yes, I left the computer open with weddingbee up one day on accident. Whoops. He laughed at me. I told him I need something to do when he's obsessively watching SportsCenter. :)
