Ever discovered friends or relatives online?

I was wondering if anyone has a brief story of discovering a friend, relative, co-worker or former classmate is a nudist or naturist while surfing the Internet? Perhaps there are not enough of us to have this happen, but as time goes by and with some social sites having half a billion members, it seems likely to happen eventually.

Perhaps all the "known associates" who are nudists already know of each other and this won't happen. It seems like fertile ground for a funny story or two!

Anyone I know or am relate to would never check out a site like this. I've joked around and from their responses I can tell they all think that nudism is either pornographic or just embarassing.

This question has been asked at a couple of the Groups here. One was onRandom Curiousities

I didn't find out online...

One time, a few years ago, I was staying at my brother's house for a week while I went to training nearby.

During the week, I began to notice a few things that kind of tipped me off. For instance, there was a towel in his chair at his computer. Hmm... that's a nuidst thing to do. I checked the history of his web browser. A couple of visits to a nearby nudist resort. Ok, getting warmer.

One evening, we were riding around town together and began to discuss our hot tub usage. We agreed that the best way to enjoy a hot tub is skinny dipping. I said, "So, you could pretty much call me a nudist." He said, "Me too!"

Ever since then, we have discussed our nudist lifestyles. We can't help but think of all the time we spent together, growing up, that neither of us knew of the other's interest in nudism.

I did find one of my coworkers on another Nudist site that I belong to and was a little surprised to see him. After talking to him about our nudist interest, I told him about TN and now he is a member of this site as well.

Not yet. Not really sure I want to.
