Thanks for the thoughts. I will follow your suggestions. Esox we did have a honest talk about the issue. Was not face to face, on cell phone when she called. Told her how important this was to me and our marriage. She said she would work on it, likely more sucess with the book. I think the big thing for me was having the first chapter describe exactly how I was feeling. It was kind of a relief to see that. I am lucky though, reading some of the other posts with the complications of affairs or money troubles or drugs that could add additional stess, I have not experienced that. I will certainly follow your advice, thx.
