I loved it when SmileysPerson said something similar the other day, and I love this part now.

Divorce Busting is about changing course away from a near-certain outcome. It's relationship triage -- how bad are things, and what needs to be done to stop the bleeding until you can wheel it into surgery?

(Of course, that makes it sound like what most people do in this situation -- beg the other person to stay, cry, etc. -- but that would be like giving someone two Tylenol and telling them to hold on while their leg is bleeding out.)
