Just reading this Pup, and from what others have said about Retro, I think that is going to be the best step you and your W can take to fix your marriage.

I see so many similarities between you and me.

My W and I have always been best friends also. We always did everything together. Football games, shopping, golf....heck, she even will go bird watching with me sometimes (and she's got a pretty good eye for it!)...just everything.

But then work and travel for work started getting in the way and when we were together I wanted to just jump right back into US and didn't realize women need to warm back up into US and that caused resentment both ways. And then we moved and along comes a predator and here we are.

I think my W and I are excellent candidates for Retro also. Now if I could just get her to agree to go....

Maybe I'm too much of a glass half full guy, but I think you've turned the corner. Your W was able to share with you (albeit in a screaming manner) her fears and frustrations and you were able to HEAR her. Me thinks the years of a SSM may be coming to an end for you....
