I do, but only in a general context. Nothing specific.

Not really, then I will feel naked in the face of public...

I wouldn't specifically. Just because there are things about my relationship that are only meant for he and I to share, not the public.

I think some time way in the past I have blogged about old boyfriends. I never blog about current boyfriends. That is too ....weird or live journal like for me.
I make fun of guys I have gone out with. Of course I give them fake names.

I don't write about sex. That's for sure.

I do. I think people who read my blog know more about Mel than she knows herself. Of course some lines shouldn't be crossed and some things shouldn't be said, but all in all, people know her through what I write.

I don't mind if he reads my blog.

I write about sex just not about me having sex, or not having sex as is usually the case.

Waiting until marriage or no SO to have sex with?

Only very vaguely. Even though she is fine with it, I try not to mention her name or show any photos too often. Always referred to as "the better half" or "the missus".

I don't really write about my partner. But you never know though.

I've just started keeping a personal blog and I've debated this with myself for awhile. I'm not going to write anything about my beau that I wouldn't say to my grandma.
We'll see how long that lasts.

I have mentioned my girlfriend on my site a number of times, for instance she took me to a concert for my birthday so I posted about that, but I don't actually talk about her specifically.

Absolutely. Pictures, even video.

I have a personal blog, so I have certainly mentioned him, though never written a post specifically about him. I definitely checked with him first, before posting any pictures to flickr or breathing a word about him in writing. But he's now a reader and avid commenter on the blog, so he's hardly a secret.

That's right. As a side topic...how many of our partners here actually read our blogs?
My girlfriend hates blogs, she thinks it's a waste of time, but she understands it's a hobby and if ever I put a picture of her on my blog, it'll better go through her first which I have. Other than that, she never really reads it unless I point it out to her.

Only about my exes, on a blog far far away, actually. ;) On my recent (ex) beau, I always sought approval first.

I have very vaguely on my personal blog, but my gf reads my blog so I can't say anything too bad. :)

I have a personal blog, so I write about my personal life. I talk about Brian pretty often, but in the context of what we're doing. In 2005, he was in heart failure and we were waiting for him to receive a transplant. I did write about that more, but that's because it completely affected every aspect of our life.
I don't shy away from mentioning our relationship, even though it still draws nasty comments from people opposing same-sex couples, because I feel like it would be dishonest or disrespectful to Brian to omit his presence from my life on my blog.

I have but I know what to talk about and what not to talk about. I have put up pictures but only if he's one to put up pictures, otherwise I respect his privacy. I try to be careful to have some division between my work online, entertainment online and my (our) personal life.

i've only made quick references to current ones before (i'm single now), but never mentioned any names or anything specific.
None of them knew I had a website anyway, since I'm not keen to show it to people I know IRL

Sometimes, if he's with me when I go out and something has happened or whatever. Except for lately where my whole blog revolves around him being away. I don't mention him all the time and I am not that personal in regards to him. Some things are to be kept private... depending on your interpretation of private.

Very, very vaguely. My wife is always referred to as "the wife" or something similar, like "the wife and I went to..." My son is always referred to simply as "my son" or "the toddler" or something like that. I don't think my wife would necessarily care if I used her name or wrote about her, but I don't really think it's appropriate for me to do so. I'd feel awkward if she were writing a blog with all sorts of information about me - very awkward, actually - so I try to avoid putting her in that position.
That, however, is not to say that it's wrong to write about your boyfriend / girlfriend / wife. Just not my cup of tea.

I would never blog about a romantic involvement. I would deem it to be too personal and inappropriate to blog about a significant other.

I hardly ever blog about my personal life and make it available to the public eye. Professional reasons.
