How about when you see a woman drive by with a kid in the backseat, talking on the cell phone. I just know she is talking to her OM lover.

Or I see a man and woman park next to each other then one get into the other car....

Someone tells me his son in law of a 20 year marriage tells his daughter he doesn't want to be married anymore, I tell the guy definitely look for another woman..

Like when my son was hit by the car and had TBI (traumatic brain injury) I learned way way too much information about brain injuries, recoveries, therapies, etc. Just like we learn way too much in MB. cool

And why it is so important for people to understand that this is a boundary that should not be crossed......

Weekly I am asked if I have Facebook. When I explain that my wife and I have decided not to have social network sites as boundaries in our marriage we are looked at like snake waving zealots.

Years ago, A.A. taught me an important (one of many) lesson:

"It's none of my g**d***** business what other people think of me!"


Preach the Gospel every day. When necessary, use words.
St. Francis of Assissi
