Can I say, knowing that you were not married... I thought you were crazy at times! But you stuck to a plan, you detached, you took care of yourself, and look what happened! You were not a sap! Let's say he still didn't come back. Weren't you a lot better prepared to handle that, if it had happened, than you would have been if you had not gone through the DB process?

You are proof that even in the most likely case, DBing can work. It doesn't mean it always will. But it can, if you are willing to stick with it!
