AIBU?
Not to want to tell DP my mumsnet nickname?

So DP knows I go on mumsnet and has always been a bit fascinated by what goes on, sometimes I read him out funny bits etc.
Anyway, last night he asked me what my talk nickname was. I refused to tell him - not because of anything sinister (there's very little he doesn't know about me!) but because I like having a little corner of my life that is nothing to do with him and DS.
DP was quite taken aback that I refused to tell him and implied that I must have secrets to hide . Am I being unreasonable?

Well, to be honest he could find out my nickname any day of the week as we share the same computer at home and I have my mumsnet login saved in the browser (and password for that matter).
I think he was more taken aback that I refused to tell him myself!
He now refers to the mumsnet mafia and asks when sleeper cell 49 is going to be activated.

I dunno - we're all entitled to a private life even on shared computers. My dp isn't above googling people to see if they're listed on the net somewhere - he's such a nosey sod.
You could always set up another talk name, put a couple of boring posts on with it and tell him that one [devil icon]

I think I might have told DH once, but I hope he has forgotten who I am, i wouldn't tell him now, we are all entitled to a little privacy I reckon.
Mumsnet and drinking too much tea are my main vices now, which is a little tame in comparison to my 20s
Love your name as well, MissGolightly
