"Not at all. I'm sure that most husbands would say No. That's what tradition says they should say. Most wives would say No to their husbands too, but they haven't had the experience that I have had. It's brightened up our marriage since Will went wandering and I'm willing to bet that it will brighten up yours and Marnie's too if she broadens her experience a little."
"What you are saying would be broadening her experience more than just a little," I replied. "Maybe it's about time we should call it a night. I need to do a lot of thinking about this and I need to talk with Marnie.
"Look, I'm grateful you told me about all this." I continued. "It would have been really crook if Marnie had been stewing over the things you talked about and didn't feel that she could tell me about it."
"But you will consider it?" Vanessa raised an eyebrow.
"Let me talk with Marnie. We'll see where it goes after that."
With that, we said good night and I made my way home.
You've woken the control freak in some men. Others are more sanguine about the proposal. For myself, I don't buy the protagonist 's fulminations, but I can live with it. Congratulations on making so many people think and respond!
As you say, in IT repair you may well say 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'.
But in the rest of the IT industry they say 'no matter how good your current model is, we can sell you a better one'. That was Vanessa.
I never worked out Vanessa as a character. I started thinking she would be a bit like Jenny Gently's character Carmen in 'Journey Into Cuckoldry', a manipulative person who believes she is doing it for the other person's benefit as well as for her own entertainment. But Vanessa didn't quite work out that way.
As I said before in the comments, writing this whole story series following on from 'Vanessa and Marnie in Conversation' was a mistake I won't repeat.

however, I think Vanessa is a snake. We had an old expression in my business (IT repair): 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it.' To me, it looks like Marnie & Barry's marriage ain't broke.
It was sad that she felt the need to retaliate. I thought it was also sad that she has deleted all comments now (originally it was only those she saw as critical) on her story.
I thought her story had promise, but I felt it it described the situation and the activities more than it developed the characters and drew the reader into their world. She has said that the next chapter will tell us more about her female character.
Literotica needs more lady authors and commenters, so I hope that she hasn't decided to abandon us.

You were not alone in Ms Sands's wrath. I happen across a couple of other 'comments' she left behind. I give her credit, she's rather verbose when she rants. ;)
I have to wander if she gets her dander up relatively quickly, why post a story in the toughest category with the most critical readership? She could have easily posted her story in Erotic Couplings and avoided most of the wrath.
To your credit, I may not like your viewpoint on extramarital affairs, but you stand tall in your views. Something to admire even if it drives me crazy. =D
