I keep having this insane urge to be anywhere but where I am. I feel as though I am trying to run from myself. Heh, not going to get very far I know

trust, and honesty is not too much to ask of anyone. you put yourself out there because you are a good person and someone took advantage of that. that's not your fault, it's their fault, and they deserve to get the boot from your journal. what kind of friend really does that? that "good friend" of yours isn't so good *hugs* now that it's done, chin up, and keep on rockin' *nods*
You are not being overdramatic at all. You know my issues with privacy, and I also take journaling serious. Serious in the fact that you are allowing me into your life...and into the life of your husband and child in a way...and I should take that as an honor. These are YOUR stories to share with whomever you want, and it is wrong of me to repeat what I read. I ask for the same respect back, and I hope I get it from those on my FL. But, like you, I would remove someone who crosses the line. I sometimes wish I did not have the local people on my journal only because they actually know (in person) my husband and children. Still I have known these people from before LJ, and a level of trust was created then. I have removed people in the past (local people) for sharing my journal entries outside of my journal. Pissed me off to no end and I shared that displeasure with them before hitting the ol'delete button

I guess I should consider myself lucky that that has never happened to me, to my knowledge. I'm sad that it happened to you. Betrayal always leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
I put a lot of trust in my lj friends too. I'd be extremely upset and hurt and worried if someone broke the implied contract. Before I ever had an lj of my own I had a HUGE blowup with my boyfriend at the time over lj. We'd had a fight and he decided I was being ridiculous, but he went and posted a poll to livejournal to see if he was right or I was right. I nearly lost it. (That's a trust issue from another point of view.) But as a result, I ended up getting my own livejournal and now I am happily addicted. People write very personal things here and when we let someone in and then they betray us, well, how are we supposed to feel but angry and hurt?
Do you have your boyfriend on your lj? I don't have Ecamer added to mine. Partly because he is rarely on lj as it is and partly because I feel like if I add him, then on those rare occasions when "He" is my problem, I feel like I cant really be open about it. LJ has been the closest thing to a place to confide for me. And while he can always run to his parents when we have issues, i have nowhere to go.. so it just seems weird to have him on my lj too when i see him every day.
Plus he got all miffed about a happy-type blog I wrote on myspace a long time ago. His perception of it was completely skewed and it cause a major argument. I dont want my lj to become drama central..
My boyfriend doesn't have a livejournal. He doesn't understand why I like it so much. He has a myspace because he loves the music aspect and all the bells and whistles that I find incredibly annoying. (I have one too but I don't do much with it except keep in touch with a few people. I just don't trust it as much as lj.) I love lj because it focuses more on the written word than image overload. Some images are OK, but myspace (to me) seems designed for people who embrace attention deficit disorder. Sigh. This probably means I am turning into an old hag
