Yes.......and yes........and yes again. This is the way the world works, my friend. You may not like it, I may not like it and the OP seems not to, but I find nothing extraordinary about what occurred. Anyone over the age of three has to know that people talk about each other's business all the time and some people never stop talking about other people's business.
There is nothing secret about that forum, so what is so unusual that someone would comment on seeing your info there. It's hardly different from some co-worker saying, "Hi ya, saw you Saturday night on the dance floor at Naughty Lola's Singles Club. Terrific crowd, hot night...huh?...didya have fun? Catch ya later."
You put your business on the street, and sooner or later the street is going to talk about your business.
My thought is that the OP must feel somehow ashamed or embarrassed by her presence on that board.
What Seinfeld could have done with this.
OP, if you think a bunch of women giggling is embarrassing can you imagine what a bunch of male co-workers would have done with such info?
Oh so she told your business to the whole office? Yeah that would make me mad as well people these days need to mind their own business. Stop including yourself in things that don't apply to you and stay in your own lane.

It isn't your business when you publish it for the world to see. You're making it everyone's business.
Shocked? It's 2016, are you really that embarrassed about online dating? Everyone's at it
I don't see what the problem is. A guy at work told me he saw my POF account. We just had a giggle about the world of online dating.
I don't get why you are so offended. I did defend you on your other thread but I'm starting to think that you are a little over-sensitive when it comes to interpreting the actions of your coworkers. I understand that you might want to keep your private life private but you don't seem to want to interact with coworkers at all on a personal level. Tip: Work is a lot more fun when you get on with your colleagues. Nobody's telling you to reveal your innermost thoughts or talk in length about your personal issues. But a bit of banter, friendly conversations, nothing wrong with that.
Not everyone is at it. I personally find online dating to be a waste of time and it never interested me.

That still does not make it right. I don't know the OP's whole situation but it seems he wants to keep his life private and I get it's hard to do that on the job. I wish the best for him because he seems sensitive and doesn't trust people much.

It's his impression that everyone was talking about it. He doesn't know for sure.
It's clear he is not comfortable in an office environment. If he cannot learn to co-exist with his fellow employees, he is going to be continually paranoid and devoid of potential valuable human contact.

I agree. Sometimes at work you have to do things you don't like I found this out the tough way at my job. When I opened up more my coworkers started to like me more.
I agree that it's incredibly self-involved and slightly paranoid to assume that two people laughing = two people laughing at you.
