We Need Your Help
We are trying to define our purpose in a simple easy statement, and I think that the following story and interaction with a reader says it all.
No yawning please. It’s just that I am having a hard time boiling it down.
The Defining Story
It started as the following on our post How to Treat Your Wife Like a Girlfriend:
“(Disclaimer: If you follow through with these ideas, you may encounter suspicion, especially if you are rusty in the romance department. If her eyes contract to slits or her arms fold across her chest – wondering what’s up or what you want from her, just explain that you read this article online and it reminded you to do something nice like this for her because you love her and she deserves it. You can tell her about Anonymous8 … Encourage her to stop by. If she does, then maybe things will really heat up for you. So, it could be a win, win, win. Only good things could come from this.)”
And this is what one of you reported…
“I am here because my husband bought me flowers today for no reason, which means he’s guilty or in trouble or both! When I gave him the look he told me about this blog, o sure right (lol) but here you are, THANK YOU! However you attracted his attention to read the post and wrote it in a way to encourage him THANK YOU 
Tonight I sent him a sexy text (which would have never occurred to me until I read your blog). I’m excited to browse around and see what else you’re writing about.”
Reading that comment made me feel like this whole endeavor has been worth the time and energy.
So, that story encompasses our purpose. Someone reads something, makes changes in themselves, reports back to the group, and all of us benefit. Now, we just need to bubble that down to one sentence. Is the Anonymous8 about our relationships? Is it about becoming the best we can be as people? Is it about friendship and intimacy in marriage and women talk and women body and gifts for our friends? Is it about our stories?

How about: The virtual equivalent of getting together for morning coffee?
Thanks for that, Aussie Locust. I think that is the right idea….
