I Am a Believer

I am a believer in love in fact you could
Say I am sappily so.

I saw a posting on a social networking site about
what it means if your partner doesn't sleep
In the same bed as you.

There were varied comments but one stood out
to me.A man with an exotic sounding name said
And I quote him,It means I am so lonely as I love
her very much.

Now,I don't know this guy or his wife and I don't 
Know why she quit sleeping with him.He may snore like a lumber mill or she could have caught him in the broom closet with her sister.

His comment sounded so sincere though it moved me to reply the following......

I wrote say sweetheart I miss you so badly and ask
that you return to our marital bed .

Within the span of an hour he wrote the following.
She said yes ! Thank you my sister.

It made my day.

WOW! That was much easier than I expected, Vickey. You never know why you come up with an answer to a problem, sometimes it's just meant to be said. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill
