WTF??? AIM related question

[sbud34]

Ok here's the story. I have three AIM accounts.I use the main accountto chat with my highschool buddies, while i use the other two tochat with my family and relatives and/or when i am not in the mood of talking but would like to see which of my friends are on. But one day while i was over at my friends house, i see on her computer screen that she has all three of my nicknames in her buddy list:Q
I am bedazzled b'c I only use the main account to talk to her, and i have never told her what my other two nicknames/accounts are.But how in the world did she get all three of my nicknames??She has never been on my computer. Also,I have never told anyone else other thanfamily and relatives whatmy other nicknames are.Thus, can someone explains how in this freaking world did she get all my three nicknames??:Q

Thanks!

[madwoodee]

or you enlisted ur name in AIM directory (which i found it lame)

and she found u.. she might like u.. i'd take it as a compliment inside.

 

[sbud34]

I never did enabled my personal profile. Can people still search for mynicknames even though my profile is disabled??

 

[kikokam]

i think so....
what's your nickname? let me try

and congrats, you got yourself a stalker!

 

[madwoodee]

yea i think she likes you

Are you sure none of your relatives have passed on the word? Does she know any of your relatives? Did you give your other screennames to any of your other friends?

Interesting situation...

 

[sbud34]

ahhhh..... a stalker?? :Q......hehe i would think so but we're just good friends, plus she has a boy friend. I think she was just bored out of her mind

 

[madwoodee]

ahhhhh. i c . . good friends

Good friends?? Right. Those kinda good friends whcih can eventually end up hugging and kissing.

I dont have to worry about that We're both at different colleges now. Plus, she and her boyfriend have a good relationship going on

Ohh i see :Q That should explain it

 

[TallBill]

um, why dont you just ask her? theres no reason not to...

 

[The Dancing Peacock]

yea, i think I'd ask...probably the easiest way to find out...

I would ask, but one account i use just to see which of my friends are on. And its kinda like spying on people , so i am a bit embarrased to ask about how she found out my screenname that i use to see which of my friends are on.

 

[Logix]

Just ask her how... don't mention why you have all those names. If she asks, just says it's for testing or something, or an old one you forgot to get rid of... something stupid. Or just tell her... if you're good friends.

Then create another AIM account and don't tell anyone and don't use it to send messages to anyone, so you can spy on everyone!

If you used the same email address to create each AIM account thats why. I have about 4 or 5 different AIM accounts (mostly because AOL's web page doesnt (or at least it didnt when I first used AIM) let you say "yes/no" when you type in a screen name to create.. it just creates it! and I was trying to create one I liked ... in the process of trying names I ended up creating a few). Anyways, I have 1 that I use to "spy" on people so to speak and I have a completely separate email address on that one ... One that I dont use at all either so nobody knows it. So if you search based on my email address you'll come up with a few screen names, but not the one I use to "spy" so to speak.
