Girlie, I think you’re da’ bomb…what I know of you in real life and that of the blog stuff. I think you’re real cool. It is hard to keep the two separate though (not letting one drift or conflict with the other).

You know I can totally relate to this, because you know me in the physical world, not just the blogosphere. I feel like drift between the two identities less seamlessly than I used to, but I suppose that is inevitable when you get involved to the level I now have with my Lover. Aside from that though, I have found that my tone and voice has changed over time…it has become more natural and free-flowing. I feel comfortable saying what I feel and sharing it with whomever cares to read my thoughts or tales of naughty behavior. One snarkalicious babe to another, you know I think you are fabulous as L or Lilly or a bit of both at once. XO, Babe

Ah… how this post struck me so! I’ve only just started Neptune, just a little slice of blogland for me only, and yet I am torn about what to say and do there. A couple friends know about it. I started it mainly to participate in HNT. Family, some of them would fall over if they knew, and probably want me to die a slow painful death for it all. But really, I haven’t even talked about anything all that interesting. The pictures would be the problem. And every day I’m hoping they won’t be found in the computer files. Silly to hide, but for now, I have to.

Just wanted to say I enjoyed this post. And anywhere the word ‘snarky’ is used is all the better. A fav word of mine!

LOL, I know what you mean about keeping the two halves separate because people dont understand. I also know about how easy it is to ‘blab’ about something in the wrong world and watch the confusion on the faces of the listeners.

If only people were more honest and open about sexuality, the world would be a much better place and there would probably be less teenage pregnancies and STDs.

Joanna is synonymous with the me that I would like to be. Brave, open, honest, sexy. But she is also less constrained by ‘what other people will think’. The real me wishes she could care less about that but nearly 50 years of conditioning is going to take an awful lot of undoing.

Sometimes we have to rely on the praise of our blog friends for any achievements in this virutal world, rather than that of our real ones x

Lilly, I’ve been reading your blog for a couple of years now, maybe more. I think most people have sides of themselves they yearn to expose, but feel conflicted about exposing completely. Your own struggle with it is very well written. It’s exhilarating to live out your own greatest fantasies, and show them off to the world, and have a liberated sense of self within a controlled, accepting and titillating atmosphere. For anyone you meet that knows Lilly and is disappointed with L is truly unfortunate. Anyone with involved, particularly kinky fantasies must quickly realize that to live those out in a day to day life is just not going to be practical. While I make no claims to know the L behind the Lilly, Lilly is a vibrant, wanton, beautiful person, and those are not qualities that simply disappear behind L. They do create a wonderful mystery to L, not in a sexual sense, but in a very human, understandable and easy to relate to way. The fact that L is as much who you are as Lilly, makes for a great dichotomy of personas, L being the everyday necessity that makes Lilly possible, and just off the radar of unsuspecting eyes. Your stories and fiction are great, and this post makes the idea of Lilly being anyone. Someone you might work with, someone you might see on a bus, or train, or walking down the street going to work, who doesn’t really flaunt their other side (well, maybe a little). Then when the moment is right, you slip into a proverbial phone booth, and L emerges as Lilly. You’ve posted in the past about having your face exposed in your blog/HNT pictures, and it seems like over time, the frame has slowly crept up your face. In a way, the readers get to grow, learn, and experience things with you, despite the anonymity.
I think we all can look forward to the future of L and Lilly coming closer together. Or at least just cumming…couldn’t resist a bad pun!

Yep, I can totally relate. I *just* had this experience–meeting someone who expected someone else entirely. My last post was about this problem. I could have just skipped writing mine and linked over here if I’d read this first!

I thoroughly understand the double life. I am a serious introvert and extremely shy face to face. But, get me online and i get (basically) internet balls. I can say almost anything here with no problems, speak my mind freely (witch i cannot do in real life). Its hard trying to balance the two, keep one from crossing over into the other. However, its not always a bad thing.
True, a person may not want their friends, family, or coworkers to know all of their dirty little secrets, but it is important to have someone to share that with (even if it is just as a blog).
The trick is figuring out which of those real life individuals can be allowed behind the curtain.

sorry if this ran to long….keep up the good work

Dunno. I like the little bit I know if L and I wouldn’t mind getting to know her better. Of course, I have experience with the whole double-life thing. You see, I’m Batman.

I can’t count how many times I’ve told my coworkers that I did “nothing much” during the weekend when in fact I’d had a fantastic time at a swing club getting fucked and my ass beaten. lol Being poly is difficult too as sometimes I wish I could mention MasterDoc but Davey is my “official” boyfriend so I have to make sure I don’t mention “my boyfriend the doctor” at work.
