We purchased a new house and we could no longer use the PC we used to use to control our tv because it was too big for the mantle so we have been using my personal laptop. Essentially we use a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard and use the computer to play games and watch streaming services.
I want to make it very clear I am not attempting to hide anything deceptive from my husband. I am just deeply embarassed sometimes with my stream of consciousness googling and my bad art.
The computer is connected to my Google account so when we go to watch Netflix my Google search history appears, and if we use the computer to ask chat gpt anything you can see my conversation history.
The computer also has years of my art and creative writing that I don't feel comfortable showing anyone.
We were watching a downloaded show and I made a file for it on my desktop but I realized my husband has been clicking quick launch and I feel humiliated you can see art I have been working on in the recent files.
I'm scared to Google search anything because I am terrified every time the history pops up. I was googling things like fantasy romance book suggestions which is obviously very cringey and he has made fun of me for reading books like that in the past.
I have asked my husband to make a new user account on the tv so I can have some privacy but he gets annoyed at me and says it's not a big deal. I don't think he realizes everything I do on my phone shows up on the tv, and I don't want to point it out because I don't want him to actually look at my search history.
I'm not really sure how I can convince him to stop using my laptop or at the very least make a new user just for the tv.
I'm wondering if I should try to convince him, or if I need to just learn to be comfortable with this? We are married afterall and maybe I shouldn't feel embarassed about sharing these things with him.
Tl;dr I am embarassed my googling and art are viewable on our living room TV. My husband doesn't want to give me privacy but I have been indirect with him over my embarrassment.
