If you have read this blog, or my other blog (www.jonzee.com) you would notice that sometimes I may mention things that have actually happened in my life or my personal experiences. When I do mention those things, I usually try to keep them anonymous, I don’t want to "call anyone out" or anything like that.

When I first started this blog, I wrote up a nice little blog post about a situation I am currently going through, a very annoying situation. I never published it. The person that is the topic of this situation will probably never read my blog on his own. The people in "my circle" will know who I am talking about if they happen to read the blog post, mainly because I may have complained about it a time or 2.  Although the situation is indeed an annoying situation, and he probably does need to be talked to about it, I don’t really want to "call him out" on my blog (even though it makes for a nice story). The post was written like Ive said before, in an anonymous way, where unless you know of the situation, you most likely wouldn’t know who I’m talking about.

Since Ive written that post (its still in my drafts…unpublished) Ive talked to a few people about if I should publish it or not. Most said that I should and that I’m being way too nice about the situation all together. So I ran it through the ultimate test and read the post to my mother and asked her what she thought. She knew who I was talking about half way through reading and recommended that I shouldn’t publish it.

Don’t get me wrong, the blog post isn’t being mean or rude towards anyone, its basically about something that is happening, probably a situation that a lot of people have had to deal with themselves.

As a blogger, how many of you have had this dilemma? What do you do? For now I think I’m not going to publish it but I’m still going to keep it in my drafts in case I change my mind.
