Pro’s and Con’s Of Dating a Blogger and/or Having a Blogger as a Significant Other

May 28, 2007

A blogger and a non-blogger being together seems to be a common occurrence now. Have you ever wondered what happens between them when she’s blogging and he’d rather watch sports on TV? She’s so glued to the computer that she can’t even hear him say ” let’s go to bed now, honey.” Most likely,finishing a blog post takes precedence over everything else.

Most of the friends I know appear to be blessed with gracious, kind husbands who willingly accommodate their blogging fixation. Ms. T, for example, would meet us in the mall in an EB while her husband windowshops, waiting for her to finish. J and M first met in an online group and he doesn’t at all mind her vivid online confessions which happened back when she was still single. And the last time I talked to G, I learned that her husband is already blogging too. I immediately summoned the mental image of both of them positioned back-to-back, both  facing their laptops.

So here, my own take on the Pro’s and Con’s of Dating a Blogger/ Having a Blogger as a Significant Other. Do feel free to visit my blog and add your anecdotes and ideas :P

PRO’s

It’s only You, The Blog, The Computer & no other

Suddenly, you’re travelling, watching movies and eating out more - just because of The Blog

Your blogging partner has become tech-savvy (and you think you can also benefit from it)

He/she has  a new-found interest in photography, and you’re often made “The Model”

So what if your S.O. didn’t make it way past the High School Glee Club? People now recognize him/her just because of  The Blog

Your absentee relatives and missing classmates in California are emailing/  calling the apartment you share together, asking for “more updates”

Those random pictures of you posted on the blogging partner’s website are beginning to look very cute. You now actually feel as big as Donald or Hillary.

You are going on a cruise/ honeymoon to Singapore, thanks to the extra moolah/ dollar checks that blogging bought

CON’s

It’s only You, The Blog & The Computer… and most especially The Blog & The Computer

She’s blogging away when you’d rather bang her

Your partner now talks about meta tags and CSS, even in his/her dreams

She never stops taking pictures of the food and the resto, even when you’re dying to eat your meal or announce your office promotion

You never know what he/she will tell the world when you two break up, especially if it’s a bad one
