I have developed for myself a software program that helped me durign my wife's affair. I have continued to add functionality to it as I have learned more.

I am interested in finding out how much interest would be out there for BSs to have something like this. It essentially allows you to record relevent info based on the MB way of dealing with affairs. It is formatted so that as you add the info, it also gives you what you are missing (such as if you are in Plan A, it will prompt you concerning efforts made to expose the affair). All of this information is recorded in the database. You essentially are keeping a database with all of the info, journaling and planning in your fight for your marriage. And reports are able to be printed out, for your use...or even to take to yoru attorney if things reach that point.

My questions have to do with the level of interest of somethign like this. So, please answer the polls. And also, post any items or functionality that you would want or expect to have in something like this.

Thanks in advance.
Is this type of software something that you are/would have been interested in during your WSs affair?

What is the maximum amount you would pay for a program like this (the price would be to cover my overhead for deploying it on the web and maintaining a site)?

Mortar-

I would have been crazy interested in something like this...I think most people in our situations would, I would have grabbed onto anything....and even though $50 is a lot to me, it would have been worth it.

That crossed my mind. But I didnt actually make the program...I had two developer friends of mine design it for me and tweak it as they went along. So, it really belongs to them. I was more interested in just covering the cost of getting it from them and offering it on a website. I know it helped me extremely. It really helped in keeping the bigger perspective for me, as I accumulated so much information, I could really see where things were headed. And where I was weak in my plan, or in my preparation.

We BS certainly need all the help and resources that we can get. Would your program have the detailed information needed as to what to do next ? Or would it be just a vehicle to record what has been done so far ? I guess that was not clear to me. I am in favor of anything that would help those in need.

Thanks as always, Carnation
