I really like this conversation. I'd like to contribute my perception of how these concepts fit together based on all the excellent advice I've received here from Puppy, Allen, and others. Again these are not my ideas, but just how I've framed them in my mind.
If anyone has any comments, corrections, concerns, etc...Have at it! I'm doing my best to continue learning!
I illustrated this as a generic case of marital infidelity based on what seems to be a very common series of events for a lot of stories here.
As you'll notice...I like illustrations...they work well with my simple mind LOL!

I am in the middle of this mess, and making lots of mistakes (ain't that right, Puppy?), but I know that trying to be the perfect W was not working at all. DBing advice only works if both parties are into it.

Hey guys - how do you go completely dark when you have kids (one of whom is disabled)? Also when you have to see him at soccer games and other random functions?
