Hi. Well I will tell you right now I have been lurking on these boards forever it seems. I am divorced but still hanging on to some hope it will work out somehow. I can relate to your situation some, through our seperation and divorce and the past several months I have witnessed my ex becoming the person I wanted when we were married. I think it is a good thing maybe she will eventually be happy. I pray that she does heal and become happy, I throw in that I hope it will also be with me later on but that flame burns less brightly each day as I let go of hope.

You asked about a book... Mars and Venus Starting over is one I go to a lot. Some of it is inspiring, some of it makes sense to the situation, and parts of it well, are just plain truthful as to why things are the way they are and why they are the way they use to be.

Hope that helps.
