You guys do nothing but bolster my case. Thank you both.
"Placate" suggests changing a hostile or angry attitude to a friendly or favorable one. The wife's response of, Nope - this is inappropriate. Do not do it." is not made out of anger nor is it hostile. It is quite a reasonable response. Why should the wife in this scenario HAVE to agree with the guy's proposal to send a gift to a love interest of her husband's?
Are all men such pigs? Maybe I'll start a new poll on the "What's Wrong With Dating an Old Flame While I'm Married" Web site.

Sorry If I'm a Pig, certainly mean't no offence, I actually meant do it with the blessing of the wife, NOT behind her back which would not be good,
I'm comfortable, my wife would not forbid me to give ANYONE such a gift, but if she was reluctant, I'd discuss it with her, then we TOTALLY trust one another, WIERD I guess
Back to the point, Is this about lovers ? or a generous spirit, I hope the latter,
Truly I'm sorry you think me a pig, I didn't read the post fully, and I am nieve, I REALLY thought this was an act of kindness
Wake up Kevin
