Marion, It seems unrealistic to think people are going to talk openly in a PUBLIC forum like this, especially men to a unknown woman, about private matters of a significant relationship. Normal boundaries in a relationship don’t provide for going around blabbing about significant details publicly. You are getting a sample that has nothing to do with the reality of the majority of the men on this blog because most just keep their mouths shut on the topic, not just to you, but in general. The question is permissable as Rich so graciously allows for our missteps but it is bizarre in the context of this blog IMO.
