hi there, new to this but after lurking for a while thought id ask your thoughts on the following.. googled my husbands ex wifes name (is that weird in itself?)and found she had a blog site. Now im OBSESSED with it! Im logging in several times a day to see updates. The ridiculous thing is, its not even that interesting, but I cant give it up! Do you think its natural to be curious or am i just a sad git who needs to get a life? (Think I know the answer already!)

Completely natural, I'd do it too (and want to kick myself for it!)

BreeVanDerCampLGJ · 04/07/2007 08:33

Look the sun is shining outside, go out and enjoy it.

I would love that!

NoodleStroodle · 04/07/2007 08:44

I would be there all the time!

pyjamaqueen · 04/07/2007 08:45

Sounds understandable - I'd definitely read it. Once you've got to the point where you don't find it interesting though, I think you should find something better to do.

aimeesmummy · 04/07/2007 08:47

I would have done too, if she has one, I might have to google her name and see!
I got a bit obsessed, not so much with her but with their relationship, when I first got together with ex-dh. Perhaps it's the fact that they had a good enough relationship to get hitched that you want to know more about. Just don't make the mistake I did of asking who he loves more!!! I got the answer "its like liking apples and oranges, you like them both but because they're different, you can't compare"... Aaaaaaargh!!!

MamaSpeccyMolecky · 04/07/2007 08:48

i don't thinkyou're a sad git but i do think its taking over a bit

its natural to have a nosy but if you are logging on several times a day, its getting excessive.

Think you n eed to step back a bit

krispie you are going to have to give us a link so we can all read it

PattyBouvier · 04/07/2007 08:49

Ooh yes. Link please.

MamaSpeccyMolecky · 04/07/2007 08:50

lol lets not go down THAT route again!

krispiecakes · 04/07/2007 09:05

ha ha, noooo way - would be my luck that she was a mumsnetter. Can you imagine if she KNEW i was stalking her blog site? i couldnt bear the humiliation!

I'd be the same.

There's something about DP's ex wife that makes my blood boil,. but I'm oddly fascinated by the old goat as well.

nailpolish · 04/07/2007 09:08

i remember someone showing photographs around of a wedding that she had been to and saying "your dh's old gf was there, wanna see what she looks like now?"

my head nearly exploded wiht desire to say "yes" but i said no.

just incase she was a stunna

ps - pyjama queen - its not THAT interesting but I cant stop in case something interesting DOES slip through.

By 'interesting' i mean something juicy which makes me feel smug. OBV.

I just tried to google my dh ex but nothing came up. Im strangely disapointed

IntergalacticWalrus · 04/07/2007 09:24

Oooh, I saw a recent pic of the ex wife a few months ago, and i felt all smug.

I ain't no oil painting, but neither is she

LaBoheme · 04/07/2007 09:29

can totally relate to this - and the googling of name - It's normal just one of those things you have to do, you do feel a bit sad doing so though...

LazyLine · 04/07/2007 09:37

Be careful if it's something like Myspace. There are programs that will track who visits!

krispiecakes · 04/07/2007 09:52

no, not my space. in fact I was so paranoid that she could see who was reading her blog that i set up a blog site on the same website to check that that facility wasnt available!
