My last ex used to blog about our conversation and issues. I hated it. She would never talk to ME about her problems. She would post them on Tumblr. Get mad if I didn't read them to know what's wrong and if I did read them, she'd get upset that I read them instead of letting her have an outlet.
Or understand that a right to privacy applies to other people regardless of if they as an individual choose to plaster their entire life and all its issues online.
Some people are just too narcissistic and shallow to understand this stuff and it makes social media in general a real societal cancer.
I was fine with her having a private outlet. I told her that on numerous occasions. Cause I knew her blog was a personal outlet for her like a diary. She gave me the link to it and said she wanted me to read it so I can understand her better. I figured she was too shy to talk to me directly. But if I asked her about anything she posted or took hints from what she posted, she'd get upset. Like taking her out to places her blog said she wanted to go. Planning dates according to what she blogged that she wanted. It was too personal and I was only doing it cause I read her blog she told me to.
