Do you share this comm with anyone IRL?

I've been posting here for a long time and my partner occasionally posts here because fandom is one of the hobbies we share, so I showed her f!s. We live together so we sometimes chat about f!s if we read it that day and both post anon here now and again. I don't have other IRL fandom friends other than people I see at conventions or other get togethers, since we live pretty far apart, so nobody I would discuss f!s with in person on the regular. How about yourselves?

None of my IRL people are into "fandom". :(

I think that is common, for the most part I don't mind it because I like to keep my fandom hobbies separate, as a space to relax outside of my other life responsibilities and even my other hobbies. But I do enjoy talking about fandom in person with the long distance friends I see occasionally, and with my partner.

Same. My dad was into some of the same things I was, but not fandom.

I have but no one cared much. They weren't into fandom.

Yup my best friend and I will talk about the secrets and the drama sometimes. It's fun.

My partner isn't in this community but is in fandom so sometimes we chat about secrets. Most of my irl friends are either in fandom or are ex-fandom people so they're all at least a little familiar with with this comm.

Nope.

Closest thing is that once I shared a posted secret with a friend via text because it was related to a conversation we had. Didn't tell her where the picture/opinion came from.

None of my friends are really the fandom + social media type of people.
The ones into fandom tend to enjoy a thing and they dabble with fandom on socials but not in a significant way.
My best friend has been a Pokémon fan since the cartoon show aired in the US. They have made connections through and gone to all sorts of cons for Pokémon, but my friend wouldn't see a reason to come to a place like FS to read people's thoughts and opinions on fandom (in the general sense and direct secrets about the fandom they're into) and then read/submit comments.
They have Instagram, FB and Twitter but they use it because the friends they make through Pokémon were constantly asking my friend for their socials, so my friend connects with them on those socials but my friend doesn't really use those socials as a space for fandoming, just so they can make and accept friend requests from friends they made.

I have siblings who I think if they knew about this place they'd frequent here and interact.
But since this has always felt like a home away from home I feel more comfortable not talking to my sibling(s) about this place.
It's possible one or some of my siblings know of this place but we've never talked to each other about it and I would rather keep it that way.
