[email protected] ooooh. I hadn’t considered that before as a potential reason; I usually assumed that it was just about my privacy and not wanting to get into details, but in truth, you’re right; I could certainly name them or talk about the context (date, place, etc) but I just leave it all vague because I don’t want anyone to know who I’m talking about, not really. It’s as much for my protection as it is theirs; I could say things that make an ex look very bad, for instance, and while I may or may not be justified in doing so (look! I’m doing the discretion RIGHT NOW!), I don’t want anything to come of it; I’m just telling an anecdote and don’t want anyone to go on a lil witch hunt.interestingly enough, now that I think about it, I may have that instinct specifically because my ex would take offhand comments like that and would literally stalk people based on if. hah.
