sillage

Wickedly, clever, thanks for sharing

Very, very interesting, sillage. I think I'll try it on someone. I love the line: "I felt as if I should throw him a mackerel."

Thank you! Great! I sent the link to my best friend who is married...

Actually, that's excellent advice for anybody of any age.

Yes, it is the "catch them being good" strategy. It works and it is painless and there is no backlash except, once I had someone say "You're using that psychology stuff on me, again." But is still worked.

Oh, my, good read! I DO actually do some of this with Mr. Diva already...... ;-)
