Michele, Read the first chapter and plan on purchasing--describes my H and I so well. Question for you--my H is in MLC (Replay stage) left 7 months ago after reading this chapter I think this helped to contribute to leaving--my C says so too. Dare I suggest H read this on the off chance it gets him thinking that maybe there could be help for us? Don't want to push in any way and i have had no real discussions with him about our relationship since i want him to work thru his problems on his own and don't want push him further back in the tunnel than he already is.--Fanny
