Spam without the link to the "guide/mentor."

Hi, sushi. I don't necessarily disagree with you, but am just wondering how you know. (Not saying you're wrong; just curious).

Agree, I was waiting for the link to the love guru.

Aha. Got it. Perhaps he thought that people would ask for more information about the mentor and then he'd come back with a link. Good catch (By the way, I wasn't going to ask for more information from him! Ha ha ).

:-) It is indeed funny, what it has come to !

I know our senses have come to doubt everything ! That's not at all the case here.

BTW the GURU is a monk... and has no link. You can go and meet him in person (At no charge... he will be happy to help you too!) ... but I understand why the suspicion.

Sorry to disappoint you... but no link.. no spam.. nothing here. If you are waiting for that, don't!

Through out my "mess", I kept notes of the practical advice given by the "GURU". I was just going through old emails and found those notes, and thought I will post my story here as inspiration.

But that's alright, pls ignore this, if you feel it was spam and I wasted your time.

Perhaps if it ends up helping even one of those in "mess", it would be worth my time.

BTW, I started a successful software startup company 2 yrs back. My time is better served in many other things !.... "Spam....!" :-) Link to gURU ! !!! .... whooooo!

but like i said i understand.

BTW if anyone wants those notes... its in excel file... share your email address and I will be happy to share.

If you can swift through and help urself out of situation, well and good.

All the very best guys... & gals ... and those others waiting for spam... keep on waiting...!!

There are other clues too:

1. Poor maths. (It was 5 years, 3 months and 5 days ago, the hardest 6 months of my life.

2. Hysterical, over-use of exclamation marks.

Oh, yeah, I forgot the "just send me an email", too. Sometimes there's an email address in these posts, sometimes a phone number, sometimes a link. Just give your email address to this guy and get an excel file? I don't think so!

"swift through" (sift?) and "help urself out of situation" (yourself? the situation?)

Yup - something odd afoot.

The OP does not seem to be a native English speaker. "gather myself?" what is that? I agree that it seems to be spam.

And don't forget the monk..... How many monks give email advice about marriage????

Can't believe that I didn't clue in right away. Yes, this OP and his follow-up clearly show some attempt at spam, and the indication that the follow-ons will be to hook people in. Yup - the language used, and the lack of connecting words, are clearly indicative of cultures from which we've gotten spam many, many times before.

I'm NOT saying that all posts from Asian or other non-American cultures/speakers are spam - - - not at all! However, history has proven that that's often true.

OP, if you're "for real", come back if you wish. But since you didn't ask for info or advice, and are simply giving people advice to "stick with it", I guess you're done here. Good for you for succeeding in your marriage, if it is, in fact, true. A successful, loving relationship is wonderful and worth letting others know about.

If your intentions were otherwise, well, ok then. I guess you have to work on your approach.
