I saw a change in Another Stander's writings, after his D. However, JRuss has been like going from night to day! All of his posts I have read since his D, have been the same quality we've seen on this thread. I think men, especially those very nice-guys, who go through a D, are most helpful to newcomers. Many newcomers want to hear from those who saved their M's. But IMHO, these nice guys who are M to the type woman JRuss described......have priceless words of advice, if people will listen.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
