Report your own OP and ask if they will change your username on your other posts. I'm sure they do this.

Just email mnhq, or report this post it may be quicker, then they'll just delete. It takes a few hours.

Uh I hate this. It's happened to me before and relationship nearly ended as a result.

Ok, it's a public site etc. But unless you actively give your username away I feel like it's akin to snooping on a diary etc.

Hi UniqueSiren,

We can see that you've taken the advice given here and reported this thread to us at HQ.

Don't worry, we'll be in touch with you off the boards to sort things for you.

I did feel violated which I was also very embarrassed and I can't even look back on previous posts now because I can't bear it. I have said some very personal things and there isn't enough cringe in the world.

My XH did this to me not one but twice. The second time was worse because he knew how devastated I was the first time. It was (one of the) final nails in the coffin of our already fragile relationship because I completely lost all trust in him.

This is why I namechange regularly.

But the occasionally get troll hunted as result of not being a recognised MN member despite having been here for a while.

Can't win.
