OK All, Go easy on me.....no more riots. I've listened and I'm backing off. My pledge: 1 solid month NO CONTACT (unless she initiates) and little talk etc. I will concentrate on myself, but I am still doing website for wife/kids. It is great therapy. So don't YELL.....your obssesive...your a stalker...your dangerous etc etc. This is MY way of dealing with it and it makes ME feel good. I wish I had done this when together. She is very romantic and I got so boring in marriage that I neglected her needs for affection......sorry HONEY! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> If I had done more of this then maybe we'd still be together, butsince I didn't I'm here with you all on my computer <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" /> Worse place to be I guess. Hope you all might take a look-relook at this site. I put on my favorite song now. If anyone wants to know how to do this for their spouse let me know...it's easy and FREE!!!! By the way counter is on it so I can keep track of interest....before showing wife I will take off. I just want you all to see it and tell me what you think. Love of My Life

Alan - I don't think I've ever replied to your posts but felt absolutely compelled to reply to this. ARE YOU NUTS?????? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> Sorry, I was yelling there. Okay, I'm being blunt here, but if I was your spouse I'd be very p.o.'d that my face, name, children etc were plastered on the world wide web without my permission. (Personally, I have a problem with putting little kids on websites...I just don't agree with it - too many whackos out there.) I understand your reasons why - and they are good and honourable reasons, but I just don't think it was a good idea.
JMHO - take it or leave it! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

I must've looked at this a dozen times over the last hour. I'm torn between wanting to tell you how incredibly beautiful I think this is... and how incredibly frightening I think this is, for two reasons.
First, it is beautiful, and from a stricly 'healthy marriage' viewpoint, if I were a wife and my husband did all this, I'd be flattered.
But...
If I remember correctly, you had some issues with your wife - she felt smothered, right? This will only sufficate her more, in my opinion.
Also, as Alberta says, it is a tad bit scary to have your children's names, pics, and location on the internet.
I'm torn Alan... really, I am.
(I do understand the intent behind it, and it is lovely)
