I would never criticize a person for deciding to stand and fight for their marriage. Most of my aggressive techniques are ONLY because I recognize most people's inability to stand for too long, without further emotional, financial and even medical harm to themselves.
In other words, I recognize their limitations.
If people can do it -- if they can firewall their finances, lay (and learn to enforce) their boundaries, protect themselves sexually/medically -- then I'm all for standing for as long as they possibly can.
It's just that most people can't. I certainly couldn't.
