Why would someone have 4 personal email addresses?
So last week I did a bit of investigating on H's exOW...she has at least 4 personal email addresses...2 with yahoo and 2 with hotmail..
H seem kind of surprised by that...two he knew about (that she opened when they began to correspond via email) but the other two that were opened a couple of years prior to him meeting her he was not aware of...
Why the hell would someone need that many email addresses???? If you met someone and then wanted to correspond with them via email..why wouldn't you just give them the one email that you had?
Re: Why would someone have 4 personal email addresses?
I have three. One that's personal for friends/family. One that's for for websites that require one to minimize spam. And the last one is/was work related - no longer need that one but at one time I was self employed.
Re: Why would someone have 4 personal email addresses?
I have six but three of those are work related. One is personal that I use, one is personal that use to sign up with websites for spam purposes, and one is where I'm squatting on the name as it is the same as all of my others but I don't use it at all.
Re: Why would someone have 4 personal email addresses?
I have several web based e-mail addresses since they are free. This is because I sign up for just about every alert and free newsletter available. My bf regularly contacts me on one of two of them.
I know that my bf has at least 2 web based e-mail addresses. I don't contact him on his work address at all.
I would also be interested in the name of these e-mail addresses. Are they sinister or suggestive. I have learned now when registering on message boards and elsewhere to keep my e-mail address private. Otherwise, there is a whole lot that people can learn about you by searching simpy on your e-mail address.

I have about 8. One is work, two are VA healthcare related, one is Army, one is shared by my wife and I and the others were my wife's of which two were private and I now have the PW and she can't access them. My wife has always had my PWs with the exception of my work email which I would give her in a minute but i am not allowed to give to her. Her two private, secret emails which she hid from me for her crap, will over time will just die due to not being used.

H's OW he met in Singapore (where she lives and works), she is Filipino, she apparently has a younger son who lives with his dad back in Philippines. Apparently she is divorced/separated, etc.
I said to him she probably is either lying about being separated/divorced or if she is divorced, I think she wanted to bring her son eventually to Canada, where she wanted to move to? Perhaps to have H support the both of them.
I think it is wierd that a mother would want to live such a long ways away from her mother but maybe it is a cultural thing...

I have 4 that open up when I open the browser. The reasons are the same as the other forum members posted (work, family and friends, internet sites, and investing).
So much email that I sometimes feel like Jim Carey in Bruce AllMighty when he started receiving millions of prayers from people from all around the world.
