Default Private or no?

Now with the 'rage' of blogging and the hype, do any of you still keep a private journal/diary (those books de)?

If you do, would u let your bf/husband or gf/wife read?

If you no longer do but still keep your old journals, would u let him/her read?

If you know your bf/husband or gf/wife keep private diaries, would you expect him/her to let you read??

Would u still read it if he/she din explicitly give u the permission, but u know he/she won't find out if u read??

For me, i still do keep private diary though i din update it as often as old times.
And i still keep my old ones.

Personally I won't let my bf or even my husband read my private diaries. I'd rather tell him myself all the things i want him to know or he wants to know.

And I'm fine with him keeping his own private diary - i mean even in long-term permanent commited r/s, one is still entitled to his/her own privacy.

I'll not read his diary even if he may not discover my doing, cuz i'd feel uneasy to know i've invaded his privacy. Unless exceptional case such as i suspect him hiding something major from me like an affair or like, still I'd ask him first before resorting to this..

I guess the difference between blogging and keeping a personal diary is the kinda of stuff you want others to know or not.

For me, I've tried blogging. Didn't work out for me cause I feel that a lot of my inner thoughts are pretty personal to me. That's why I would prefer a personal diary.

It's quite an enjoyment flipping through the diaries you keep over the years. You can see for yourself how you've grown through the years.

I started a blog many many years ago when blogging was still new but I forgot to keep it updated and when I wanted to, I forgot my password so hiazz...gave it up! I have never kept a diary.

If you do, would u let your bf/husband or gf/wife read?
Non-applicable

If you no longer do but still keep your old journals, would u let him/her read?
Non-applicable

If you know your bf/husband or gf/wife keep private diaries, would you expect him/her to let you read??
Of course I will want to read lah! I read books about people's life so if my husband has a diary, by hook or by crook, I'll sneak a peek. Luckily for him, he doesn't have one

Would u still read it if he/she din explicitly give u the permission, but u know he/she won't find out if u read??
Piangz..allow or don't allow is not in my dictionary for married couples.

blog can be made personal. I still prefer to blog online rather than writing. One main reason is because I type faster than I write =.= which means easier for me to type out all my thoughts at one go. and I always misplaced my dairy when I still kept it. so ...

I will not let my other half to read my dairy/blog. Some things are better not to be read by other people. Keep it to myself. On the counterpart, she should trust me since I'm her other half already. I will tell everything I think she should know and not everything She think she should know. Anyway, it's is still my own life. I have all the rights to reserve my trivial yet funny secrets.

Private blog, mayb yes.. books? Nah..

If you do, would u let your bf/husband or gf/wife read?
If he asks, yeah.. Y not?

If you no longer do but still keep your old journals, would u let him/her read?
As above..

If you know your bf/husband or gf/wife keep private diaries, would you expect him/her to let you read??
Of coz, out of curiousity, i will wanna read. But if he insist not, then so be it.

Would u still read it if he/she din explicitly give u the permission, but u know he/she won't find out if u read??

i've a public blog and also a private blog.
i'm fine with him viewing my public blog and not the private ones as its written more into details about my feelings and all.

if he has a private diary or anything, i wouldn't want to invade, so therefore i would want him to respect that as well.
