Problems That Can Arise With A Blogging Spouse
January 3rd, 2008 by admin
Do you have a blogging spouse or perhaps you, yourself, are a blogging spouse. As most of us know blogs were created as an online diary that can be viewed by others.
If you or your blogging spouse run a business blog all information given on the blog will probably be unbiased and based more on facts rather than opinions unlike a personal blog that is based more on biased opinions rather than fact.
While a personal blog may be a great place to get out you or your blogging spouse’s stress and frustration it can also be a place where you or your blogging spouse may unintentionally air your unwanted dirty laundry so to speak.
When we get angry we generally say things that we really don’t mean later on. The problem is, in that fit of anger you or your blogging spouse may put something in writing about this anger.
The problem with talking about why you are mad about something especially if that anger is aimed at your spouse or your blogging spouse’s anger is aimed at you, everything that the blog readers read is one sided and very biased. Let’s face it, most of us will not admit to being wrong when we are in the moment of anger. We may admit to being wrong when that anger has subsided but will never do so when we are angry.
The serious problem comes into play when the readers of the blog post read you or your blogging spouse’s, angry post. People tend to take sides and since the blog readers have only one side that they can take which of course is that of the author of the post. There are two sides to everything and it is unfair to give only one side of the problem.
I guess the bottom line here is if you or your blogging spouse, have a personal blog don’t get too personal especially if it involves you and your spouse’s personal differences. Stick with the more upbeat things. The personal stuff should stay private. I understand that people love dirt and will come running to read it but you have to ask yourself is it worth it?
If you feel that you need to clear the air by expressing your anger or you feel that it is the only way that you can get people to visit your blog you may want to form a partnership with your spouse so that he or she can express their side as well. By doing this you will accomplish the traffic that you want and at the same time keep your marriage intact.
Personally I wouldn’t air my dirty laundry in public. Different strokes for different folks; it’s what makes life interesting I guess.
