I don't have to worry about my hubby ever reading my journal, as he doesn't have one and has no interest in having one. I have to put the laptop in front of his face if I want him to read something I've written or that someone else has written. A good bit of the time, he has gotten it in email before I post, anyway.
I readily admit to having email as my first choice for communication with most people. It allows me the opportunity to sort out what I really want to say before I have to say it. Face to face or phone conversation can be very difficult for me, because I am someone who wants desperately to be understood by the people around me, and the best way I know to do that is choose my words very carefully. The differences in my communication styles between oral and written communcation can be very startling to people who have only seen my written work and then have a conversation with me for the first time.
