Odd, there are plenty of other examples right here in this forum where the turning point was when the betrayed spouse set and eforced boundaries by letting the wayward spouse go.

They stopped making excuses, stopped walking on eggshells in their own life, and were prepared to move on without the wayward before things turned around.

In fact, that makes up the majority of cases that have turned around here.

How do you reconcile that with your assertion?
This shows that walking on eggshells and having no boundaries is ineffective. And I agree that being prepared to move on is a key element in moving things forward, either to heal the marriage or to divorce. There are a whole lot of other things as well.

I haven't been able to find this approach to dealing with affairs in DR - perhaps Frank can find it.
