I was listening to a local radio station today and they had a caller asking the DJs to help with her quest to find out if her husband was having an affair with his personal trainer. He had hired the trainer to help him lose weight and the wife was questioning what was happening. I went into Starbucks to get my coffee so I don’t know what happened, but I’m sure I’ll find out tomorrow morning when they do the “day after” discussion. (Starbucks always takes precedence.)
It made me question why a person would want to find out on the radio. If I found myself in that position, the last place I would want to ask that question was in front of people I didn’t know. Maybe it made her feel better to know that people were sympathizing with her.
I’ll be listening tomorrow. No matter what results, she’s a braver woman than I would be in her situation to let other people she didn’t know be in her business.
I’m not so much on people being up in my business, but I’ve learned in the last year that sometimes it’s good to allow myself to be vulnerable and to ask for and accept assistance. And with us living so far away from friends, I’m pretty much accepting that assistance from strangers. I’ve been humbled by how God has sent the perfect people at the right times.

I’ve made a similar decision, to lose 100 pounds and document it online. It will force me to stick with it, since I’ve made that commitment public.
As for the woman calling a DJ about tracking down her husband, maybe she needs glasses. I would think a PI would be the better choice.
