I wonder if they have any success with non-funny people like me? Can anyone take it?
Yes, anyone can take the ed2go online classes. Just google ed2go for details on all the courses offered and to see how it all works. I like them because it gives me something else to focus on besides my crappy sitch. One of the nice things is each course has a "classroom" where everyone can post threads and replies, kinda like here. Plus there's a "teacher" who oversee's all the interaction, kinda like... well, if I say I may end up in detention!
I may take "Divorce Navigation" after the funny bones course is complete. I hope I don't accidentally leave some materials lying around for W to see!

I'm trying not to fret FY! How do you keep from fretting in the spare time between the GALs and work? I went to an outdoor jazz concert last night which is a first for me, and had coffee with a friend this morning, and worked all afternoon and am doing the overnight in the ER tonight. But still found plenty of free minutes to fret
It's ok to think about your sitch. You really can't stop it even if you tried, so don't try to avoid the thoughts. The trick is to look at it differently, and accept where you are, and realize that all the fretting in the world won't fix your spouse. Actually, it only makes you feel worse.
Maybe check out the book "The Happiness Trap" (I just started it) or material on "Mindfulness", instead of reading/posting the same thing over and over on this board looking for the magic answer that'll send your spouse running into your arms. Everyone feel free to whack me with this same 2x4 the next time I need it.
