Retrouvaille is a wonderful experience. Yes, I'd recommend it even with a maybe EA/PA. But they will call before you go and ask if you are going with an open mind and a willing heart, and if any third parties are involved. If both spouses don't say yes to open mind/willing heart and no third parties, they don't encourage you to go. This is because there are so many unhappy marriages around. And they can only help about 20-30 couples at each weekend. If a couple is not open to reconciliation, they would rather have a more willing couple. The weekend is facilitation, not brain-washing.
