DH can name a few!
-
He knows all the ones I talk to off the boards.
-
Hubs is aware of @Smurfette!
-
No...I don't talk to him about anyone specific. I'll just say, "a friend on the boards" but not specify.
-
maybe 2!
-
He can name a couple.
-
yep! a few
-
Oh gosh yes.
He's not a fan of @shopaholic since her instagrams often inspire baby clothes shopping sprees. "Oh my gosh look what K is wearing! Vi needs that."
-
He knows some since he has meet 3 of them. But otherwise if I talk about someone he is like who. He isn't great with names.
-
@Dandelion: Same here.
-
My husband and I have the exact same conversation at least once a month:
Me: So and so is going on with [insert Tidybee's real name here].
DH: Who?
Me: You know, my friend who lives in NJ and has a baby almost the same age as DD and gave us all those great Paris recommendations...
DH: You mean your internet friend [insert Tidybee's real name here]?
Me: Yes.
DH: That's a fake friend.
Me: But I have met her in real life and talk to her all the time not on the internet.
DH: Well, okay, I guess that counts then.
Me: Back to what I was saying... ::hand, face:: -
He doesn't know names but he knows a few of the babies that I show him all the time on Instagram.
-
Only Mr. and Mrs. Bee. I think because they are easy to remember, otherwise I just say "someone on HB" because he only half listens anyway
He does know some of them that I am FB friends with, but he knows them by their real name not their HB name.
-
@rahlyrah: Same! He couldn't really name anyone, but knows babies/stories that I've told him.
@septca: My husband used to make me say "friend" in air quotes whenever I talked about a blogger/fellow bee. Now he realizes that I'm closer with some of you ladies than he is with some of his IRL friends. -
@Andrea: lol, Yes.
I have a few that I communicate with on a daily basis (or at least multiple times a week) via text.
He knows one by name and every time I say anything baby related he goes "did Danielle tell you that on weddingbee?" I always have to correct him and say "it is hellobee...and yes: Danielle told me that".
And then at Christmas time when I got a bunch of Christmas cards (from Olivia and mommy, Benji and mommy and more...) He was astounded. Our whole fridge door was covered in my HB mommy friends
-
2...one I/we we have hung out with and another we met.
-
@CupQuakeWalk: DH thinks it's 'honeybee' and I giggle each time!
He knows most of them by either location (that southern girl? The one in Cali? Or is that the one in Texas?) or 'that's J's birthday twin' orrrr 'so that's a new random internet person who has our address and is going to murder is in our sleep?' Ha!
-
@CupQuakeWalk: haha I know. I am always texting bees. He was also astounded (great word) at how many Xmas cards we got from bees!
-
Yep, the ones I talk to off the boards. He's said, "Who is this [Bee's name]? You guys talk A LOT!"
-
He knows of a couple, mostly ones that I've met up with or exchanged cards with. He's surprisingly good at recognizing HB babies on my IG though! maybe 'cause I'll frequently shove my phone in his face going, 'OMG, look at baby XYZ, she's so cute!'
-
He knows who several are because of IG!
-
Hey doesn't know parents, but I show him pictures on Instagram and he recognizes the kids.
-
Yup! He's met a few of them so he knows them. He knows a few others too. Any time I mention someone he wants their back story.
-
@babyjmama: hahaha dying. My family calls it honeybee too.
DH knows a few by their real name, some by descriptions, and of course the ones that sent holiday cards!
-
@Pepper: sometimes when I scroll through IG, their are LO's from HB that are TOO cute not to show DH!
-
No but I always tell him new things I learned or funny things I read from the board!
-
@babyjmama: this! He knows them sort of by name, but mostly by location. I'll say, "so and so and I were talking..." and he'll respond, "OK, she's the one who lives in [blank] right?" or "wait, which one is that? OK."
He's way less freaked out by the fact that I have internet friends than I thought it would be. Makes me happy
-
@septca: hahaha I am cracking up here!!! I love this conversation
My DH knows you as the girl who told me where to get my boots He's not your biggest fan right now -
I just asked him and the best he could come up with was MrBee, MrsBee, AmericanArmyBarracksGirlBee (I know who he means) and CreationistBee (again, I know who he means!). Nice try!
-
Haha yep!
-
@Cherrybee: That's funny!
Mine mostly just says, "Oh, that must be one of the bees, then," because he knows I have no friends in real life. I've found it extremely hard to make friends around here, and have a grand total of... 1.
-
No! I would hate for him to even know my name...sometimes ii catch him reading the site and I always hope he doesn't notice...logged in a Mrs.LL
-
yes I think probably a handful! only ones I've met in person or know pretty well and call by name.
-
@sorrycharlie: DH knows O's dance routines cause every time you post one on IG I wake him up to watch.
DH knows a lot of bees by name. I'm trying to use real names and not screen names because I sound crazy sometimes.
-
Dh doesn't care about specifics
-
Hmmm he probably knows running Elley since he's met her but I usually just say my internet friend so he doesn't really know specifically who I'm talking about. We got a lot of Xmas cards from bees and he was like who are these people? Lol!
-
DH is terrible with names, even of people he has met, so I have to remind him over and over "remember my friend from the internet that we met?".
-
@oliviaoblivia: I actually just posted another one! I've been busy lately, totally behind
I have weeks to catch up on on IG!
-
@sorrycharlie: I know, I liked it already!
-
@oliviaoblivia: hahaha! creep!
just kidding
He does know some of them that I am FB friends with, but he knows them by their real name not their HB name.
