Then I come back to the boards and read on someone's thread that all of this work to save the marriage is a lost cause because in all likelihood, when a WAS says they are done, they mean it.
Hey sweetie,
There are no quick fixes. Getting the R back on track is a long term goal. We set the WAS free, work on ourselves so we are not co-dependent and become happy WITHOUT them (or anyone else). We don't let other peoples stories of success of failure affect our path. We learn from others what character traits we want to change in ourselves and then do it.
