Thanks so much for the update as I consider you one of my special DB friends.
I,too,remember when you first visited the board last summer.Your posts held such anguish.I was suffering too,but was about eight months ahead of you on "the journey" and I tried to reach out and help you along.In doing so... I was also helping myself.
Unlike you you I didn't discover DBing until my marriage had been in crisis for about 5 months.However,once I caught on,progress was made daily and as you know my marriage has not only survived,but has THRIVED.
My anniversary was last month and it was so very different from last year's unhappy time.I feel so loved!!! I truly can identify with you and your success.
My only wish is the many of the newcomers on this board would be as studious and willing learn as you were.
Karen,you zoomed to the ahead of the clas in a very short time.Proof again that DBing is effective!
I am sending you a big hug from a fellow traveler...Jenny Baker
PS...Karen.I have had some comments from folks in my family and from some friends,too.(perhaps,I should say attitudes)You know I have learned to answer questions in a brief manner and can redirect attention rather quickly.Give it time,karen and don't let them spoil your happiness for one second!
