Annalise,
What are you doing to promote the "mutual admiration society" in your own marriage?

Because, from what I read from your other posts, you are admiring the OM and then sitting back and expecting your H to "win you back". (a vague statement if I ever heard one)

Marriages take TWO to break down and TWO to repair. Philosophizing on what it takes to make a great marriage will only get you so far...the rest must be done in conjunction with your H.

Just some thoughts for you.

Btw, I agree with what you are saying--I just think that most people here already are aware of the realities of what you write. AND they are aware that it takes TWO to get in the situation in the first place, which I don't see you writing about as of yet.
