Hi all of you!
I haven't posted in such a long time, but I have lurked since 2008 and I think my last post was...?
However, I READ here consistently, and have sent countless people to MB over the years, and the MB 101 and Basic Concepts has been the topic for many group conversations/parties, etc. Always lively and fun.
So, I wanted to pass on this data point...you know what seems to be the biggest bone of contention amongst my married (and unmarried)friends? Transparency closely followed by 15 hours of UA.
It's funny, because in reality when I started reading here back in 2008, mobile devices were very limited compared to today. A blackberry was bleeding edge. What was a huge part of the UA and transparency discussions was "what counted". Gaming, movies, etc., were always in question. Just 5 or 6 years later? Holy Cow! I can only imagine the challenges our device-additions pose today.
Just random thoughts. In addition, I truly appreciate all of you, new and not-so-new (not saying "old"! LOL!)
I miss reading colorful posts from many that have moved on (NG! and Jessie...get that?), but I hope the reason for that is that they've moved on for good reasons, as I believe they have. Melody -the-higher-the hair...Indie...LTL...black raven (Indie, remember when you were just a little, vulnerable UK girl? Ha!), and so many others that are just so selfless in your commitment.
Just know that even though some of us don't post, we're still reading and referring MB. I don't post as much as I used to as I don't like to drive-by knowing that I can't or won't follow up in a timely manner. Seems rude on my part and anyone on the SA forum likely has questions that deserve answers in a timely manner in such a painful and critical time.
Not sure how you guys do it, and I sooo appreciate that you do!
Wait: one last thing! May I say a major hallelujah (<<<example right here) that there is now SPELL CHECK??!!!! Haa! I used to type in Word, and copy/paste. LOL. Carry on.

 Hey surfer!!! That's too bad that people have issues with 15 UA. I bet they would feel different about that when/if either 1)they are in love and can't wait to spend that time or 2) if infidelity enters their lives.
