Today is my 4th wedding anniversary, and it is a heck of a lot better than last year's anniversary (check out my D-day). I honestly didn't think I'd made it through the 4th year. I want to thank everybody here that helped me make it this far. We still have our issues (reluctance to talk about the A, infrequent SF, and FWW's depression and issues), but we had our first MC appointment on Wednesday (well the first since she was in the middle of her A), and I really think this counselor will really help us (we've had two before that sucked, so I did a lot of research, bucked up, and got myself a real PhD with good credentials). Hopefully for our 5th anniversary we will have fixed our problems and put this whole mess behind us. I just want to remind everyone who's going through he11 right now that there are success stories here.

Congrats Jim. I remember talking with you so many times and you wondered if a day like this might exist.
Best wishes to you and your wife.
Happiness is not having what you want, it's wanting what you have.
