Things that happened 4 and 5 years ago. Nothing pornographic fortunately. This is very weird. I am very weirded out by this. That is all.

You have a right to be weirded out by it, little cud chewer.

And unfortunately, he has a right to post about it, even if his judgment is questionable?

Maybe try revenge? A quid pro quo might shut him up.

Hell, for a short while, I was under the impression that my ex-wife was going to be in a reality show.

Turns out she was just in a bad non-broadcast sitcom.

Not really up for quid pro quo. Just... ick!

I don't understand diary type blogs in the first place. And can he really have had nothing interesting happen in his life since then?

Well. Could be worse. He could be in a reality show. Thanks kmellis.

Get a lawyer. C&D him. Sure, it'll cost you a little money, but it's worth it.

(I'm a little biased, as I have a number of friends who are lawyers and willing to be helpful.)

Tempting. Lawyers scare the hell out of him for some reason. But... nah. And he'd just go underground anyway. He's good with computer stuff. Unless he gets too explicit. Then I figure I'll break into his house and destroy his precious computer. He used to be bad about back ups. I'm guessing that hasn't changed. It'd be a project, though. His house is a minor fortress. No dogs or alarms. Just lots of locks. Unless things have changed.

Is it, like, personal and slanderous stuff? Otherwise - is there a problem?

I guess if your ex isn't using your real name and not saying stuff that wasn't (exactly) true, do you really have a problem with it? Does anyone whose opinion you care about read your ex's blog and know that you're the ex's ex?

I guess it'd be wierd for you to comment (if there is a comment/feedback section).

/sympathy for general suckiness

He is using my real name, at least my first one, which is unique enough. His user name is an alias. Lots of people know this blog exists (incl. my family) but who knows if they read it. Nothing too slanderous. In fact it's usually boring.

When it started looking like it was getting too juicy I put in the comments that I was reading it and reminded him I had family and friends in town. I think that helped. There was a general consensus of "yikes!" among the regular commenters.

But he's still chugging along. Probably no big, but it's still weirding me out.

I had a very brief fling with someone a few years ago with whom it was painfully obvious (to me, at least) that things weren't going to work out in the slightest.

She posted about me in her livejournal for ages and ages - but thankfully just identifying me by my first initial. It was mildly uncomfortable to irritating, but not malicious.

Solution? I stopped reading her blog.

But then, our circle of friends didn't overlap at all. To her friends I was just this guy, and to my friends she was just this girl.

If she had used my full name or just my first name I wouldn't have taken kindly to it, but thankfully she was - as far as I saw - smart and sane enough not to do that.

(But, y'know, I wasn't some skeezoid and otherwise bastard guy and hadn't done anything shiftless to deserve the full name treatment. That's different. I couldn't fault full name usage in such a hypothetical situation. It was just run of the mill piney-ness and mild angst.)

I wish my exes would write about me in their blogs. That'd be sweet.

i am fully squicked out for you, small ruminant.
i'd say some mild warning letter by lawyer wouldn't be out of line but not if it ends up causing you worse trouble and retaliation.
it will hopefully die of banality.

*still squicking*

I, too, and highly squicked on your behalf because I broke up with someone and then later it was spread out over the Internet and all of our friends speculated on it, wrote essays about it (and got the details wrong), and it prolonged the pain. Slightly different situation, but still enough to make me squeamish about dating anyone who's Internet savvy.

I have a slightly similar situation. My ex has a blog (or three) in which I was featured in a couple posts. His family and our mutual friends read this. It makes me uncomfortable but its his blog. My consolation is that he has skewed perceptions of reality (this is well-known among our friends) so everything on there is taken with a grain of salt. Personally, I don't read it so whatever is on there can't make me angry (which I think that it would if I read it). Ignorance is bliss.

Um, what's squicking?

Heh, heh, heh.

My ex of many, many years ago has taken to reading my blog, and that's squicking me out. I can't figure out why he's doing it - I never mention him, why would I? - but there is his hometown on the referrer logs, every damn day, and not enough people read my blog where I think it's coincidental.

Um, what's squicking?

See here.

mygothlaundry I guess I'm doing the same thing your ex is, except that if he weren't writing about me I wouldn't bother reading. I want to know what everyone's reading about me since I know these people.

Specklet- I never knew it had skull-fucking connotations! I have been leading a sheltered life.

I only knew of the skull-based connotations...I was very disturbed by this thread for a while. Specklet's post helped to clear that up! :)
