Dear Suki Sent by Anon Dear Suki I am a man aged 29 years old and i am heavily into comms, I got married 2 years ago and me and my wife have had no problems so far Until i started to use my computer more often on BBS`s etc She decided one day to `try` out bbs`s herself and got addicted like i am. She used to logon when i am at work and logged on to many BBS`s around the UK. She eventually logged onto one or two BBS`s that i was logged onto and recongised me my handle. She eventually got access to restricted areas of these bbs`s and they had some form of pornography on them. She also noticed that most of the uploads were done by me!. She then approached me and asked what i was upto?, i told her the truth that i found the bbs by mistake and started to donwload the pics and found them fascinating, and really wanted to try some of the stuff in em and was to scared to ask her in case she was offended. She agreed to participate in some activites and we decided for `a laugh` we`d do our own collection. We got our video camera and filmed ourselves whilst Participating. I eventually digitized these and put them on the hardrive. I archived the collection to save space. This is were the trouble started i think during a batch upload i mistakenly uploaded to archive to at least 8 bbs`s. I didn`t realise it until oneday she downloaded them from another BBS!!!!. She was *FUMING* and nearly killed me, she slapped me and hit me and generally i got cursed etc. I tried to tell her it was a simple mistake but she doesnt listen to me i dont know what to do. I`ve tried telling a sysop to delete the pics, but they`ve spread too much. No shes theataning to divorce me, and i love her, i really need help i`ve tried everything to make it up with her but she refuses, she know living at her friends house. Please help Anon Dear Anon, Here's a warning to us all - never digitise and install on hardrive any pictures you don't want to run the risk of falling into the wrong hands! The best thing you can do now is to keep telling her how sorry you are and hope that eventually she calms down. The problem is that she feels that you've abused her trust. Any sort of "erotic photography" between consenting partners can only be done when there is explicit trust between the parties involved. You trust your partner not to show pictures of you in revealing poses to all and sundry. I know what you did was accidental, but her feelings have been hurt just the same. Hopefully she will listen to you eventually - maybe one day she'll even find it funny or flattering that so many people wanted to download her image! Perhaps you could find an embarrassing, revealing photo of yourself, have it photocopied, and pin it up all over town, with the word "Sorry" printed across it. It might help to redress the balance and give her a good laugh too. In the meantime, make sure you ask the sysops of any boards where you see her pictures to delete them, and carry on grovelling! And in future make sure you keep your erotic works of art where they belong - in private! Suki END ===
