There is a bit of a tone on the site these days that has become darker and more pessimistic. It grieves me a bit to think that perhaps I have contributed to that in some way.
I've probably contributed to that also. Bworl, I think maybe we've both seen what the other side looks like, we've both been here a long time and seen this story unfold a bunch of times, and if we aren't jaded, I think we are at least realistic. I want success for everyone on here, but despite your best efforts, ultimately it is the walk-away spouses choice to try again. If the marriage can't be saved, I'd like to think that the LBSes were able to feel good about their efforts to improve themselves and did what they could to save their marriages.
