Title: Deleting my Myspace...
Stringaling - September 28, 2006 07:03 PM (GMT)
Cliff really wants me to delete my myspace account because it hurts him toknow that Charlie might be checking my page or reading my blogs. I really don't want to, but I guess i can compromise since we aren't cancelling internet.... :( :(

It was a very sore spot, which kept the wound fresh. I really really appreciate this, String. It's a very small thing really, but it means a lot to me.
Love you,
Basil

I can't say I blame him.
Myspace has always seemed like a pick up joint anyway.

Its not a pick up joint...I got in contact with everal old friends and stuff--Man!! I just remembered that I can't talk to them again because I don't know their personal email addresses!!! CRAP!! I should have sent an email explaining and getting emails :cry:

What does it mean if he asks me how to cancel his MySpace account and he instead removes unimportant blogs and updates his picture?????

I'll tell you what it doesn't mean: I'm looking for a date, just in case things don't work out with you. :gotcha:
Seriously, I intend to delete my account too. I had some posts, which I though really were good insights into our marrige, but I deleted them all, because I don't want anyone on myspace to know our personal stuff, see our family pictures, etc. I deleted all the photos I had on there and the one that is my default now is the only one left--an icon of Saint Basil the Great. The only post I left was a cut and past of an article about marriage which references some teachings of Saint John Chrysostom on how husbands should behave.
I know you didn't really want to do it, but I feel much better for your consideration in cancellation of your myspace account. To me it means maybe we can move on past this . . . and closing the main means of contact is just one of the first ways to end contact with someone outside of our marriage. I hope you care enough to block, delete, not dial, or do anything to keep in touch.
Love you,
Basil

I'm new here so I don't know your history..but I gather there definitely is one. This is just to throw something out there..it may not be an option for certain reasons....there is an option on myspace to set your account to private..this is where only people on your friend's list can access your profile.

How about that one CLiff??? Do you think I could reset it up and set it to private??

Okay...so you'd still rather me not... *sigh*

To be honest, in consideration of the pain caused by what happened, I don't even really want to keep internet service. Compared to keeping you, our family together, and healing our marriage the internet is worth less than a pile of beans to me right now. It's not an entitlement, a requirment to live, nor is it a safe place for our children to play when they are older (they might meet someone like squatpuke :) ). I know a lot of valuable info and resources are available, but compared to healing us and being with the woman I love for the rest of my life, I would do without almost everything else. I've already agreed to keep it, but please, be considerate of how it makes me feel--these aren't unfounded, unreasonable apprehensions.
This has made things difficult, but I really want to work it out. I love you, but some things I can't live with. I wish you'd be more active with the children, because I feel like sometimes they are neglected a little, because of your internet time. I don't want you to feel isolated, so I've agreed to make it a priority to have you involved more in our Church, your family, and CHEF to get some social satisfaction in real life too. Let's work this out.

Ooooh, I want to join that club.

I don't remember what the acronym stands for?? :dunno: It's a homeschool association in our area, and beyond I think, with at least 70 families involved here locally. They have team sports, science fairs, mom's night out, etc. It's at least a way for Mandy to get homeschool help, ideas, support, and social interaction.
