lc, Passionate Marriage is amazing. I just ordered two more books from the author yesterday as well. I really enjoy his work.

Seriously? Are we sure it's not the same W?
My H's ow also had a double mastectomy at the beginning of the year and that's when he took up with her again. He broke it off last summer (after 5 months) because he said he wanted to work on our M (but then admits he was still angry at me over my contemplating divorce book so he didn't actually work on it). Anyway, H thinks perhaps it's all strangely connected to the death of his mother from cancer the year before he met because he said he felt like he had to be there for ow because of his mom. Yes, completely disturbing and even H admits it's pretty messed up now that he looks back on it all.

Keep hanging in there, E. I got your back and am in your corner! xo, lc4
I was watching a video recently by a man in my industry, who also teaches, and he was comparing our profession to what it takes to be successful to Marriage. He said he wants to stay married so every month he checks in with his wife to see what is working and what needs work. Like a marriage tune-up. He said communicating often about their needs was the key. I thought that was interesting, and he's been married for 20 years so maybe he's onto something. Anyway, just a thought.
