UA time:
Week of 7/17/2011: 6 Ouch. What was the reason for this? I'm struggling too. The vacation we took with a few other families didn't help. UA time was almost non-existent.

What SC said.
Also; what activities did you engage in, or what Non-UA activities did you fall in to that should be avoided going forward?

Markos,
Are you publishing your UA times because both you and Prisca would like some feedback?
Or, are you somehow acknowledging your own shortcomings in this area??
Or, what?
If you had some questions to go along with your numbers I'd feel a little better about your posts, otherwise it looks more like you are attempting to complain..... or make Prisca look bad??
Dunno??
But,
I've witnessed both you and Prisca using passive/agressive posts in the past and I would suggest that you both refrain from that behavior as it's a lovebuster.
I desire nothing more than to see you both expressing a great deal of extraordinary care and protection toward one another.

tst, I believe this is the reason Markos keeps a record of our UA time here: I know that we are being cited sometimes here as a Marriage Builders success story, and this has been bugging me for awhile and I'm starting to feel like I'm deceiving folks by omission. I probably won't be seeking help here on this thread again, but I do want to set the record straight. We've got the head-knowledge of the ins and outs of the program. We both have the desire to make it work. We're not perfect at it, yet.

I get this, but the lack of additional information/questions leaves this poster hanging on the edge of his seat wondering,,,,,??? Why aren't you guys meeting the UA time? What has changed?? You? Him? Kids demands? Illnesses? IB? Just don't want to do it? No longer know what to do? We've got the head-knowledge of the ins and outs of the program. We both have the desire to make it work. We're not perfect at it, yet. No one is asking you guys to be the Poster couple for MB, even though you are a very cute couple, but you both seem to be going backwards even though you have the head knowledge..... So what's up??

I honestly think changing your attitude to your relationship, looking at yourselves rather than always your partner and knowing where to turn when things slide is the success story. Nobody is ever going to be perfect for always, we're all always works in progress. Its normal to have ups and downs, as long as we know that to some extent those ups and downs are within our control and indicate a need for reprioritising or some more communication and thought about where we are missing the mark with the concepts.
