Just got a comment from my colleague, that I seem to be addicted of this forum.
Is it a case when I should learn something from someone else's similar experience? or possible outcome?

Oh my God!!!
Just yesterday I got similar comments from my colleague.
She told it seems you are spending more time on ranch than you were spending with your ex.

I don't think anyone has plain come out and said it to me, but I do get asked on semi-regular intervals "what's happening down on the Ranch?". I think the opinion of an addiction is so well established now that it's implied and unsaid.

Funny. My wife commented "you still on that forum?" when I was about to open this thread.
