1. Has your sex life with your partner improved since you started DBing or since you read SSM? - What sex life? We've not had sex since August 04 2. How long have you been DBing or employing the techniques in SSM? - since September 04 / 6 months 3. How long did it take till things improved? - They didn't improve. They got worse. The D is going forward. Sure W tells the now defunct MC I've changed but if she changes her mind she's "folded." 4. What was the most effective DBing or SSM technique for you? - I've use them all and feel proficient. I'm well equipped to handle W's rage but she's got a point to prove to whom I don't know. Maybe herself? 5. Even if it didn't improve your sex life, did DBing or SSM improve your relationship with your partner? - No, no, except she never felt she could emote, she does now in spades. I take it in process what I hear, validate her feelings so maybe thats an in mprovement in our relationship? Regardless she's moving forward on the divorce.
