I can say that it worked for me. November of 2002 is when my H gave the I'm not in love with you speech, we danced around C for awhile and then in September of 2003 he moved out and we were separated until early 2003. October of this year we celebrated our 20th anniversary. I posted under this name and Dagny, I'm not sure if you can get back to the early threads to see all that transpired. It was bad and painful. I'm back on to help my sister, Ashlee. I know I made some friends on the thread at that time who did put the Ms back together and others who's M did not survive, but they did. I know Ellie (KML) is still around, she is in piecing, I think, and Sage is also around from way back then. It isn't easy, but it is worth it.
