Help.....my wife, cindyo, is totally addicted to Aruba.com. I come home from work and she barely looks up from monitor to say "Hi". Our communication is at an all time low. Is there any cure?

In the meantime, I just signed up as a new member; perhaps I'll better be able to communicate with her through the forum.

Rob, point taken! I guess you will start PMing Cindy good night until your vacation! I'm starting to think my fiancee feels the same way you do!

The only cure I know of is a trip to Aruba - I suggest you get her on a plane ASAP then perhaps you will be able to tear her away from the screen. Of course it is only a short term cure - the disease always returns.

I am with katherine! Leave NOW. That is surely the only cure! BUT remember, anticipation IS half the fun!

Have to add also that your wife is a valuable member and contributor on this forum. Just think what the two of you could accomplish with your combined knowledge?

I'm addicted to the message board too, my family tells me this is my " happy place" !!!!! and we just purchased another week (that makes 2)

Enjoy that 2d week, a WISE investment !!

Rob o - haha my boyfriend definitely feels your pain. as soon as i get home from work i get right on the computer and keep researching our trip and reading new posts (this will be our first to aruba and our first trip alone). Your wife has been a great help and has offered some wonderful suggestions! Thanks for sharing all your info, everyone!

I am also a first timer and I find these forums to be a great help. I don't post often but I read enough. I am counting down it is 26 days now until I am basking in the hot sun of Aruba.
