Marriage links for the week
Eric, of The Fire Ant Gazette, links in a recent post to an older post he wrote about men (especially married men) behaving responsibly. He offers some practical advice on avoiding every appearance of impropriety, which prompted a Canadian columnist to interview him for an article on the subject. (Thanks to Irene for pointing out the link.) Oh, and just for the record, Eric isn't the first person to accuse me of being OCD. I'm not, though. Really.
Speaking of responsible behavior, an expert on the study of infidelity has dissected the Brad Pitt/Jennifer Aniston breakup. (Another link from Irene.) You have to keep your guard up against emotional affairs. They can cause as much damage to a marriage as sexual affairs.
Elena has a couple of follow-up posts (here and here) to her informal poll about what men look for in a wife.
I don't know what comment to make about a man who buys 60 roses and takes out a $17,000 advertisement to beg forgiveness from his wife.
Ryan lists 15 reasons he loves his wife. A few other people have done this, though I seem to have lost their links, but I love seeing other men praise their wives in such a public fashion.
If Walter Mitty had been a sci-fi/fantasy/comic book geek, this is how he would view my changing of a tire.
I have never been much good at networking or promoting myself or selling anything. In fact, I have been intending to write something about blogging for at least a week, but I just can't bring myself to do it. Fortunately, Marla Swoffer wrote an article that's even better than the one I intended to write. If you're interested, just go read what she has to say.
