Can you use a blog as evidence?

I'm wondering because over the course of our relationship I've been keeping a somewhat detailed blog about my boyfriend and I's relationship and I was wondering if I could possibly use that as evidence to show we have a genuine relationship.

No harm in trying.

I definitely agree. I don't see why not! Just be careful for some parts so they don't try to turn your story around. And maybe if you wrote a blog everyday, maybe just include 2-3 blog entries every month over the course of the relationship. You want to give the sample of an evolution of your relationship not a novel. Good luck!

Haha I don't update it like everyday, so right now it's like 1 or 2 posts every month or so. Which I hope will work in my favour.

You're very welcome. I can see it working into your favour. In my opinion at least, it shows that you care so much about the memories you share that you wanted to make sure you could always remember them. This is never a bad thing.

sure you can. but keep in mind that you're supposed to send in all supporting docs on paper - no digital media allowed. you might just go for some screenshot/print-outs focusing on highlights. your blog also might be one out of many proofs you're going to provide. therefore, you'd better don't put too much effort into this one...

I imagine it would be seen just like those of us who print out facebook statuses as proof of relationship.

It is historical, so has value - it is not like you typed the whole thing in one day

That's what I was planning to do. I'm trying to organize what we have so far before I move so that when we do apply for my PR it will be alot easier.
