A recent conversation leads me to this post - which may not be very popular on here but it's one that needs to be dealt with.
A friend of mine from when we were stationed together called me out of the blue about a few months back, telling me about their path to divorce. I pointed him to this site. Although he's never joined, he checks it out regularly. At any rate, he's followed the techniques, got the book and all, and has done really well DB'ing. When he began validating (via text, too) he thought he was seeing positive results, or so he thought. What ended up happening, some of the "validation" texts were used against him, and successfully, I might add.
The moral of the story is to be very, very careful in what you put down. Texts are admissible in court. Just be careful. I don't want any of you to fall into his trap.
There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.
