How does your spouse or partner feel about you going on webcam with people? I'm not talking anything nasty, but just chatting. I had an experience today where someone I've talked to for years explained they wouldn't be able to chat with me because their spouse didn't appreciate it.

I can understand it but I just want some other views on it.
 
My husband and I chat with the web cam with our playmates and friends all the time.
 
the only person that i used my webcam with was my gf ... they are handy for staying in touch when apart
 
That sucks Sabby, I know you've been friends for a long time. Unfortunately some people see more to it than just friendship, they allow their minds to think jealous thoughts.

Personally, I feel that the webcam can make you a closer friend, because you get to see that person more often. The only time it would effect me, is if my partner were to get "nasty" (as you put it) with someone else.

I'm just glad he took the time to at least drop me a line and let me know what was going on. Ironically, that was the first and last time I chatted with him on cam.
 
I'd like to talk to people on a webcam. One or two people.

The StudMuffin would go absolutely bonkers about it. He isn't terribly fond of the bulletin board/chat thing as it is and IM has him utterly suspicious. He's still freaky that I talk to some of you on the phone.

That's why the free webcam is still sitting in a drawer wrapped in plastic. No point.
 
I've got a web cam. i use it to take pics for avs occasionally, mostly I use it to take goofy shots of the kids to send to the grandparents. I've never chatted with it. Why anyone would want to watch me stare at the monitor, I will never understand.
 
C'mon, KM. You can talk to me on it. I'm no threat. Nope, not at all. :D I'll even talk to the studmuffin. He doesn't scare me. Much. ;)

That's an easy one to understand Pagan, especially if you're close to someone. I mean forget the fact that you can be intimate with someone you care about for a minute, it's very nice just being able to see the woman/man of your desires.

I often find myself staring at the face, and smiling to myself with thoughts of how much I care for that person.:heart:

I love to watch her laugh, or tease me over something that I've said or done, there is a certain closeness you just don't get with words alone.

I don't have a cam. I'm not really looking for romance, but I'd like to have a cam to visit with friends. I think it would be great to correspond with my brothers (don't have any sisters except Sabbath of course) and their kids.

I think I'll get one. Any recommendations?
 
I use an Intel webcam myself, and haven't had any problems what so ever, plus it's fairly cheap.

Hi brother :kiss: I managed to find a new webcam on ebay for the grand total of $35 Canadian with insured shipping. It's a Phillips and came with good software. I can make video emails, stills, etc. It give great resolution too.

Perhaps he's scared of losing your friendship, I mean some of us want to open up a little more, but are frightened that they might scare their friends off.

I mean I contact someone myself, whom I feel very strongly about, but that person is a little affraid of getting too close. I want to PM her all the time, but I can be a little too passionate and say things that might not get the response I'd have hoped for.

I'm sure you know what I mean though Sabby.;)

He realizes the friedship has to end in order to maintain the relationship he has. I can and will respect that.

Well, if that's the reason, then yes I agree with you, I mean no one wants to come between a happy couple even if they are good friends.:)
