Thank you to all and goodbye to my W

[Ripken8]

Matt, wow. What can I say? You and de facto were two of the posters I kept up with the most due to the similarities of our ages and sitch. While lately I've learned to detach more and seemingly let go of the rope, you have been unwavering in doing whatever you could to save your marriage.

That's why everyone comes here, to save their marriage. Not all can and sadly with as much damage done by the time we discover this place, I don't think many do.

However, it not all doom and gloom.mwhat I've learned is we all come here to save our marriage, but really, we end up saving ourselves.

We become better people and grow in ways we never would have. If our marriages had any hope of lasting survival, this is the metamorphosis that would need to occur anyway.

I've noticed huge changes in you and while you've been saving yourself, throughout your posts, you've saved a lot of others on here, myself included. I wish you the best, Matt and hope this isn't truly goodbye.
