Not that there is nothing WRONG with private emailings

Is that a quote from "The Meaning of Life?" If that is a double negative, it is worth a nickle, if a TRIPLE, it could be worth as much as a quarter.

And Idiotville doesn't have private emailing. Some may email, I don't know. I have emailed Kiwi, but it is not the same as the other group - BigK (where is he? I wanna put him on ignore again) the Wonderings, etc.

Justuss...Jan 14, 2007

I'm asking EVERYONE to STOP!!

Stop trying to "one-up" one another. Stop trying to decide who CAN or CAN NOT post. Stop critiquing others posts and posting style. Stop belittling other members. Stop degrading other members in your threads as though the comments can't be seen by others. Stop concerning yourselves with what others may or may not be doing on or outside of MB.

PLEASE! We are all going through what may be the most difficult times of our lives. Or we have survived those times and are SUPPOSED to be helping & guiding others to make it through this maze. There are SOOO many here that need help.

PLEASE! Let's get back to Marriage Building........

So, getting back to one point of my thread, Mel, I don't think I've ever seen your point of view about having SF with the WS during Plan A.

It's a sore point for me. I refrained from sex before I was married (not to WH), and didn't cheat, and didn't have sex before marriage with WH, and didn't cheat on him either. After D-day, WH told me that he had used protection. I found out differently from OW's husband. She was afraid she was pregnant, and confided in her husband.

So my WH took no precautions (as most of them don't), and had no qualms about exposing me to STD's.

That is a problem I have with your Plan A expert, and also with the Harleys.

Let's see...where is that Pinocchio emoticon when you need it? Oh, maybe it's behind the barbecue sauce.

Honestly, I don't. I have a private BOARD, but not "private emailings." The only group I know of who does/did private emailings was mini-idiotville.

Believer, it's OK to SAY MY NAME...

What's up with that?

Yes, I had SF during MY PLAN A..

I haven't read that it's advocated by the Harleys though.

No, it is not advocated by the Harleys. It is not MENTIONED by the Harleys. Not in the books, not on the radio, NOWHERE.

Mimi - You made your choices, and recovered your marriage. You felt it was worth dying to stay with your husband. And that is your right. I think you are a Plan A expert. I have a problem with having SF with an active WH.

BigK and Mr. W - Why did I KNOW that the two of you would show up here??? As Big K said I must be paranoid.

I appreciate what you and Mel are saying...but I have problems with those "PRO" and "EXPERT" designations..

I'd like to be considered a PLAN A WARRIOR!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

My goodness Believer. Honestly. Am I to think that every time you and Jen post on a thread there is collusion?

Goodness me.

You may not have a brain of your own and need others to tell you when to post but I assure you I post where I see fit and I am sure MrW does as well.

BigK - I don't know, mate. But I see the same posters all the time whenever there is some controversy. I can predict who will show up. I can't remember the others right now, but there are some that are missing.

As far as Jen, she and I tend to think alike (sometimes). I have emailed her twice, and it wasn't about the threads here.

If you want to know what it was about, I'll tell you. I figured out the MB name of one of the moderators here - JustUss.

And MrW, Mel and I and many others think alike as well.

A lot of the time - but not all.

and the said "controversial" threads are at the top of GQII where "we" all frequent most of the time.

and we are all large contributers to this forum.

So, mate, what are the odds exactly of "us" posting here on the same threads?

Sorry. Yes. Semantics and all that.

It has always reminded me of that movie "The Star Chamber" with Michael Douglas.

I have never denied that I email BigK. So I do have private emails. There. Said it. I'm outted. Love ya BigK.
