Ok made this error once before somewhere else.
I am NOT posting in the Significant Other's section until MADE to by her TELLING me to DO it.
It's her spot on the forums. I am cool with that.
So I tell her now, in THIS locations, for the love of god (yes I know it's just an expression to me, a turn of phrase), post, say something, come here too if you can.
POST DAMN IT!
Getting my wife to open up is like pulling teeth. No wait, I have had that done, it's actually less bother

I beseech those here that are SOs, to get my wife to chat. She goes by Diamonds_mom (that's the cat's name by the way).
My wife has almost NO internet savvy, barely understands how to use a computer, would basically not require my older laptop if she didn't like solitaire and a specific video game she likes.
If you PM her, she might not even realize it as she might not even know what an incoming message alert even looks like.
She has so little skill in forums, that you will need to give her a lot of leeway.
I can help only so much before it becomes too close to looking like I am explaining the patently obvious in an insulting fashion.
So those of the forum community that have the 'pleasure' of knowing someone close that is like myself, please go out of your way for a while in getting her used to the whole forum experience where possible.
It will help me a lot, and I can use any help I can get.
Look at a post composition window, and just remember none of any of the user interface will mean much to her at all.
