Cat, It does help to understand, at least to some small degree, how they could have fallen into the trap of an A... and how hard it is to give up. My H had many back & forths. He had a very hard time giving it up event though he knew he wanted me and our family.
It's good to have that level of understanding. Anyway, sounds like things are going well. Keep up the good work!
