Hi, rayanne.

Michele was talking about TSSM on the newscast. I bought it. Later I bought Chapman's book. Neither of us got much out of it. I also bought a couple of others, don't remember what they were.

The Marriage Builders website was a shock for me. It reads like a very bad soap opera. I thought I had seen every form of dysfunctional human being. I had not.

My wife and I have both "cleaned up" some areas we were holding back from each other, as a direct result of spending some time reading the MB site. We will never be perfect, but we have come a long way in the past year.

I completely agree with you, the site should be a mutual experience between willing partners. It is a lot to fathom from an emotional point of view otherwise. I found myself enraged, sad, happy and almost in tears a couple of times. That is a bit much for me, so I won't be spending a lot of additional time there. I did learn a lot however. Certainly enough to realize how close we came to a place I never want to visit.

I don't know how things are with you these days, rayanne, but I hope life is treating you better.

All the best,

I will ferret out an affair at any opportunity.

-An affair is the embodiment of entitlement, fueled by resentment and lack of respect.
-An infidel will remain unreachable so long as their sense of entitlement exceeds their ability to reason.
