Anyone want to clue this guy in?

Should she confess to her husband?

Sounds like the subscribers already commenting are doing it for us.

Yup there's lots of bad (and sometimes dangerous) advice floating around out there. Thank God for MB. In fact there's a new site out there that purports to advocate marriage but mostly what it does is blast sites where they became disgruntled for whatever reason. Some have even been banned from the sites they trash. Whatever. The important thing is that the "marriage" advice being given is so loosey goosey that I feel bad for any hurting people that show up looking for help. WS are petted and cooed over without a thought how that might make newly betrayed spouses feel.

Thank GOD for MB where a person can come and get a concrete plan that WORKS!

What an idjit. That guy can't even support his own philosophy.

Well, if they've been banned that's probably why they're trashing the old site they used to visit.

I have found that people who have hostility as a main point in common usually drift apart. Hostility doesn't have much of a bonding agent in it.

I hope the people who find that site and truly need help can see past that rancor and get true Marriage Building help.

Or they can come here and get it straight from the horse's mouth.

My thoughts exactly. It kinda reminds me about the warnings in the Bible about false prophets popping up in the last days. Maybe not that bad but similar. It makes me mad and sad at the same time.

Much like waywards who bond over how bad/terrible/awful their spouses are.

PM,

This is how I see it.

If you are a motivated demagogue and wish to manipulate emotion and take revenge, you must start with a good story. Then you go about identifying and establishing ties to a confused and gullible sub-set of the population, and offer them stories that detail what went wrong, with particular emphasis on making them feel like victims. After all, the less you know about what is going on in actuality, the more you feel like you have no control over it.

The story does not have to be true. It needs to make an occasional tilt toward the facts, but it does not need to be factually accurate. It just has to make sense and tie in a couple events. Half-truths, I call them. But quarter and 10% truths will work too.

The story will help you to colonize confused and unsuspecting minds. It will play on their juvenile insecurities and even make them feel popular (again or better yet for the first time). Thereafter you will be able to get them to do what you want them to do. Like waywards, they make choices and then stick to those choices in light of ever-crumbling rationalization and justifications and despite all reason. Reason can be ignored or soothed by just making up ANOTHER story.

If seduction and manipulation is your game, storytelling is the way to go. A good story will fire up the emotional engines while anesthetizing all forms of rational thought and control. Works for waywards. Works for shameless disgruntled angry vengeful posters too.

Mr. W

Interesting.
Veddy interesting indeed.

And when it comes down to figuring out how much better you're doing than the "other" sites, I have to assume that the owner of the website has a different goal than helping marriages. I think the goal is 'beating' other websites. Scary. Unproductive.

I think you guys have nailed it.

MB rocks. That other place throws stones.

OH! I get it! Am I quick, or what!?
I know...'what'
