Tools like Sandy's 32 rules, the boundaries checklists, etc. are super helpful. But, I'd appreciate any of YOUR feedback, suggestions, or reactions to my specific situation I'm also glad just to have a sense of community with all of you. I appreciate you and hope I can offer you all some value, motivation, and hope too.


Mr. P, please be careful trying to mix marriage advice from differing "experts". A lot of non-DB (MWD). experts push reconnection and other pursuing and pressure techniques

My recent situation (end of 2017 beginning of 2018) was a second go around. DBing can pay dividends even in a second go around.

Remember, back to basics: get a life, 180s (self-improvements) and detachment.
