If you follow the advice you get here and in Michelle's book:

You have no idea how true your words are.

I look back now and see that what I went through has turned me into the man I wanted to be instead of the man I had become. Perhaps this was the only way I could have gotten to where I am.

Something I forgot to add above:

There are two tracks running right now. Her track and your track. They are completely different tracks. You need to keep your eye on yours, and keep them off of hers.

If she talks to you about anything to do with the R just validate her feelings...even if you think they are 'wrong'. She will re-write the past, embellish events, say things that didn't happen, etc... it's a script. Don't buy into any of it..they are just words. Do not try to defend, justify or somehow try to convince her that what she believes, thinks and feels is somehow wrong. It's her experience, let her have it.
