Kudos to you dear Pep. You are brilliant in your short but on-target posts. Not everyone can say a mouthful with so few words.

I love posters who say what they mean and mean what they say. Lots of those on this very DEEP thread. Lol!

It's all about me, forever and ever. That's what FWH swore to me after D-Day. Can I help it if he worships me now? Must I defer his advances? Do I turn his romantic overtures away? I must say NO. smile

If I have to endure the ministrations of a formerly wayward husband, aka foot rubs, back scratches, bubble baths, etc, well, such is the life of a recovering BW. smile

Interestingly enough: his father told him before we got married that he had to learn the fine art of responding to a wife: "Yes, dear."

Do you mean that I praised a computer-generated load of pretentious rubbish?

I only said it was good because I thought it really was you, Mrs W.

(Thinks: Is it too late to retract my post?)

You know, Mr W has outed me as a phony. I obviously know squat about what makes a good poem, but I like to pretend I'm cultured. Now everyone knows I have no clothes!

Please tell your husband "thank you", from me.

Grrr.

You know that's funny because my wife has a god father (sort of) that told me the same thing when we got married. Yes dear. In truth I don't think its served me very well. Fortunately thanks to you and some others, I have learned to say "NO dear" over the last few months.

Thank God it was a poem generator because it made absolutely no sense to me. I thought I was dense or somethin'. smile

I don't know about if a infidelity forum advice generator could be successfully programed. If you've read many other forums, the advice you get on MB is so much different and better.

That being said, I could easily design a post generator for recently betrayed husbands or for fogged out wayward spouses.

Such programs would likely be named:

Betrayed Husband Post Generator:
1. It's all my fault
2. I rubbed her feet
3. Exposure...it's not a sunburn
4. Isn't that stooping to her level
5. Maybe next week
6. Assoulmate

Wayward Spouse Post Generator:
1. But... (or just "Butt...")
2. It's all their fault
3. I need space
4. You are controlling
5. I never loved you
6. You people don't understand
7. Soulmate
8. Restraining Order
