Yes, I found the upgrade to Wife 2.0 a considerable improvement on version 1.0, but Transitional Girlfriend 1.7 proved troublesome during the changeover because she had aimed to transfer to the role and took some uninstalling.

Yes I think so. After our second overnight date she started to hint that she needed a new Celica because her car was playing up - obviously attempting to access the operating system at a deep level. The removal process began almost immediately.

What about Pirated versions? You refuse to pay for them,you know they are not really yours and you kid yourself that one day you will do the right thing.
