Hi Mark III

Yes, there IS hope. Keep doing DB and the 180. The 180 is a must!!! It is your only chance to see if spouse will come around. Don't pursue, beg or do any of the old behavior. You must create a new YOU.

I am in the middle of a sitch where H says he doesn't love me, M is dead, wants me gone, etc. Imagine the hurt and pain. But after the begging and pleading, I felt like a weakling, so I started the DB and 180.I had my first phone counseling with Laurie last week. All helps us stay grounded. There may or may not be a chance for me or you to re-do our marriages, but we won't know if we don't try.
Every day brings a new challenge. Just stay on course, don't talk too much, don't get angry, or cry, and most of all, stay CALM!! Act happy...

Take care of yourself!
