I look at your info in your sig and it doesn't appear she ever filed or retained a lawyer - my w has done both. Which is fine, I still will fight for the marriage - I just don't know how badly marriages are defunct or on life support going into the event and how they come out. I mean, are there couples in there starring daggers into each other the first day? Sitting apart?

Sorry to ask so many questions - just curious.

She was in a holding pattern and was sort of waiting to see what happened at Retrouvaille. She didn't think it'd help, but I finally got her to agree to go after a huge argument we had.

She hadn't seen Lawyer or made any moves towards that, but had said she wanted to move out. She was just kinda here and going day to day with stuff, but wouldn't ever talk R or show any affection towards me. Not as bad as some.

There were many that were more drastic at the weekend but everyone was much warmer after the weekend was over. Some of the couples we thought wouldn't make it, were loving at the end.
