I've dealt with the same concerns over the years, but over time I've relaxed the separation a bit.
Same here, though I am not quite that far yet. My first boyfriend, for example, never even knew I had a Livejournal or read/wrote fanfic, I was protecting my internet persona that much (and we were together for over 2 years). I am more relaxed now and wouldn't mind friends knowing I write fanfic, for example.
