It is completely unhealthy. He's a counselor himself so he's very good at detecting "tricks" of that trade and turning it all around. It is impossible. If I suggest that he should do it, it gets turned into "you don't care, you don't listen, you're just not trying", etc.

At a counselor, he said he wanted the marriage but not to work on himself w/a IC. Piecing?
