Silver platter was the wrong term to use. I apologize.

I understand what you are doing, and why.

For me, and I am willing to bet for others...it opens up a floodgate of questions. People tend to not believe me when I tell them I don't have a secret trick that made it all work for me. I must be hiding something from them.

I am that success story you want.

I failed my wife, my wife failed me. Blame is equal when a marriage fails. My best friend at the time was the OM.
At our worst, it was a screaming fight outside. When the neighborhood kids were watching.
That almost came to physical confrontation, not my proudest moment. I pushed her away from me and in doing so her head hit the wall of our house. She later filed a police report, but begged the police not to arrest me.
Months later she wanted one last chance.
Happy ending?
I'll find out when I die. : )
