I think you are incorrect.... there is some sort of coercion undercurrent in their marriage ... I think 2B is swimming UPstream in her marriage.

Her H , on some level, values dishonesty.

That's what is bothering me about this.

Not 2B, but her H's attitude is the sticking point.

I don't trust him at this point.

And I am left wondering, why does he value secrecy?

You might be right... but I just don't see it. Perhaps I just maintain a very sinister view of those that can find any reason to harm another person in this fashion. I just look at the stall at getting this info out there in a much more critical way now. I think this was the expected outcome all along. I could be wrong and would be happy to eat my words... but for right now, I see nothing but bad intentions.

well

I see things through the eyes of a long-term recovered (10 years) marriage (of 25 years)

and because of that perspective

I sometimes can spot recovery trouble that is less than obvious

and there is something very subtle afoot here

and I don't think this stubbed recovery will progress until Mr 2B does some self-work ...

mind you, I am aware he is not present here and adding his voice ... so this is very 2nd hand conjecture on my part

but I do smell trouble

It's hardly fair to judge mr2bn's character based on what 2bn posts here. She is not truthful with herself so how can we trust that she is truthful here on the board?

It would certainly be helpful if mr2bn would post his POV on this matter. In lieu of that, I think that the character assessments should probably should remain with the one that is posting.

Agree Pep,

His stance is very revealing.

I wouldn't trust MY child within a 100 mile radius of 2b and her H if THEIR child needed an organ donated.

Whether "marriage building" or not..dishonest people are not trustworthy.

Dishonest people who are willing to sacrifice innocent victims to stabilize their own agenda are scary.

imaging you had something sitting HARD on your heart

your conscience is screaming at you

you ache to make amends & reparations

and your spouse says to you: "Don't do it"

instead of saying to you : "Let's figure out how to get it done & finished so you can be whole."

something funny going on here .... I just don't know what it is ?????
