Beagley, Thanks for the perspective. I agree with you that my sitch, and any other sitch, could turn at a moments notice. And I have continued to apply the DB principles. However, the inevitability I speak of is probably more of a psychological coping mechanism. Telling myself that D is inevitable is helping me get to the acceptance stage of grief. I need to convince myself that I will be just fine even if my marriage fails, as it clearly has up to this point.
But you are right, I could probably stand to learn a few more things from a DR reread.
