I am happy to report that Sir Guy Jr. has stated that www.wwnh.wordpress.com will remain in place permanently, although he has not yet indicated whether he will continue to moderate the site, or whether it will be left "as is." Further information, including Sir Guy Jr.'s contact details, can be found below. As you can see, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree: wwnh.wordpress.com/2018/05/09/the-passing-of-sir-guy/Setting up a new site for further WWNH discussion in the meantime was not my idea - it was the idea of my co-moderator, Anonymous Wife! She has purchased the following domain: www.whatwomeneverhear.comThank you Anonymous Wife! Inspired by this idea, I have set this site up in addition to hers. I hope the two sites will be able to complement each other. This site has functionality that would allow us to communicate directly via DM, and start our own discussion threads, something the wordpress-style site doesn't have. Her new site, by contrast, looks much more like Sir Guy's site, and would allow posting of lengthy articles, a feature this one does not have. There is a board here called Qui Plantavit Curabit for discussing the preservation and promotion of Sir Guy's work. Please add your ideas there. Please register at the top of this site and contribute to the discussion. Sir Guy left an immense body of work for us to celebrate, contemplate, and discuss - nearly 3,000 articles with comments - the work of a lifetime! Thank you Sir Guy! |

Hello Cinnamon! I so appreciate you starting this forum so we can continue to learn and discuss WWNH! Thank you for your kind words, MHW. My heart is really broken with missing our dear Sir Guy. Over the years I often thought about what it would be like to wake up in the morning in a world without Sir Guy in it. I have dreaded this time, and truly didn't think it would happen so suddenly, or so soon. I thought he would be with us a few more years. When Grace died suddenly, Sir Guy kept writing the blog. I think this goes back to his axiom "Action cures depression." It's shorthand for the principle of dedicating your life - your intellect, your time, your actions - to a higher purpose. This was one of the secondary themes of WWNH. Like all his themes, it is deeply counter-cultural, and is the reason I started this forum. I hope it can be a place to examine not only WWNH's primary thesis, but its secondary themes too. |

Dear Cinnamon,
I'm so heart-broken over Sir Guy's passing too! It's so sad that he's not around to be able to "make pretty ladies smile." Never was there a truer gentleman. There was something so reassuring knowing he was somewhere writing to us and caring about us. I would get to work a little early, get my coffee and read WWNH daily. When he'd proclaim that "women are the relationship experts" I always smiled to myself thinking of how HE was indeed the relationship expert and I was the one who needed help! This forum is good therapy being able to connect with you and all the other wise ladies from WWNH.

Your Royal Highnesses, Cinnamon and MHW
I echo your thoughts and admiration for Sir Guy's generous contributions and sincerely appreciate your (and Anonymous Wife's) initiative and time to continue his work.
I too miss the Guy and his wisdom and am trying to figure out my own way of adjusting to the big empty space and opportunity he left behind...

Dear Cinnamon, I'm so heart-broken over Sir Guy's passing too! It's so sad that he's not around to be able to "make pretty ladies smile." Never was there a truer gentleman. There was something so reassuring knowing he was somewhere writing to us and caring about us. I would get to work a little early, get my coffee and read WWNH daily. When he'd proclaim that "women are the relationship experts" I always smiled to myself thinking of how HE was indeed the relationship expert and I was the one who needed help! This forum is good therapy being able to connect with you and all the other wise ladies from WWNH. Wow, that is SO TRUE! Sir Guy certainly was the "relationship expert." Without his guidance I would still be like the dumb bunny in your profile photo! "Oh no! What have I done?"  The thing is, when Sir Guy explained these principles, we were able to recognise the timeless truths in them. That's why WWNH will endure - because it is a system based not on acquired esoteric techniques, but on understanding human nature. One of the things I think about a lot is how in the heck Sir Guy and Her Majesty Grace figured all this stuff out. It certainly is old-fashioned wisdom, but it has gotten lost over the decades to the point where it's almost impossible to find. He did write about this from time to time, and as I review the archive of articles I will be making note of it. Sir Guy's insights were truly infused with supernatural grace - no one, no matter how intelligent or learned, could possibly have figured all this stuff out using only a human brain. I am a WWNH evangelist because I truly believe that WWNH has the power to solve nearly all male-female relationship problems and probably stop 90% of divorces. It's the only "relationship book" I have ever needed! |

Hi! So happy we can still all talk here. I miss Sir Guy every day and am still reading through old posts. I could really use his guidance now.

Hi! So happy we can still all talk here. I miss Sir Guy every day and am still reading through old posts. I could really use his guidance now. Me too. I feel the closest to him when I am reading his writings. It is quite remarkable that, for all his worldly accomplishments (Naval officer, college professor, congressional Chief of Staff, etc.) in the obituary WWNH is described as the culmination of his life's work. We were incredibly privileged to have known him and had him in our lives. Don't worry - he left so much material that we can find answers to nearly any relationship dilemma, given the time to sort through it. I am creating a chronological index of all the articles, which I hope will help. When I am done with that I will be creating a "Cliffs Notes" version of his work. This will make navigating it to extract its wisdom easier. |

Hello ladies, I found you!
So happy to see all these lovely screen names.
Will miss sir Guy immensely ...
Why can't we keep the actual blog running. Maybe if we share our thoughts there is will continue to be active? Sorry if that's not right technically but I am technology ignorant really.
Take care all.

Maybe if we share our thoughts there is will continue to be active? Sorry if that's not right technically but I am technology ignorant really. Take care all. Hello Dear Cocoa, Sir Guy Jr. hasn't indicated yet whether the WWNH blog will continue to be updated, although he has confirmed that it will remain in place. More details here: wwnh.wordpress.com/2018/05/09/the-passing-of-sir-guy/I set up the WWNH Alumni forum to serve as a stopgap until Sir Guy Jr. indicates whether WWNH will continue to publish new articles. If he instructs me to delete it, I will honor that. In the meantime this new forum will be kept in place for all who want to discuss and celebrate WWNH. I believe Sir Guy would approve of this approach. Please register and join us until we hear further instructions from Sir Guy, Jr. I always loved reading your comments and am very happy to see you here. |
