I'm willing to bet a high percentage of new members own most, if not all the burden of the collapse of the M/R. I know that I certainly did when I began DB'ing. Now I know better.
I have grown tremendously as a person and my W still finds herself struggling to admit that she has a lot of work in front of her.
Anyhow, there is a BIG difference from a LBS owning a lot of the burden of the collapse of the M/R and a LBS doing the work to look within to address the necessary issues in hopes of a reconciled M/R......without any guarantees. Yeah, it all [censored] and personally, I am a better person today than I was over 2 years ago.
So my changes were necessary and the BIG D motivated me to make changes that otherwise might not have happened.
