Maybe.
Some people don't realize how fragile a marriage is until they have broken it by being careless.
I once had a wise minister say to me, "Few people wake up in the morning and say, "What a lovely day! I think I will toss my marriage away." But that is exactly what they end up doing. By setting up a few rules at the start of your marriage you can prevent that from happening."
Since he and his wife were married 68 years before death did them part (for about an hour) I thought that he probably knew what he was talking about.
Very true. It was just the way he said it (and he makes a living as a writer), "... not something I would do."
Not if your wife asked you to, Rod, because she was feeling vulnerable, what with your being away so much promoting your book? Not if things were difficult in your marriage right now, and young women who admire you were looking pretty interesting?
From my husband, I would be looking for a comment like, "I would do that if it seemed like a good idea for some reason."
