K and JL, Wow. Talk about deja vu!!! I'm really happy for her. Gosh, makes me ALMOST (not quite) make me re-evaluate my opinions about radical honesty. If you recall, we all had quite a discussion--the first of many sponsored by me--about to-tell or not-tell. Then she discovered she was pregnant and she disappeared from the board for awhile. I was truly worried about her. So glad she has a happy ending to her story. Having said that, I don't wanna hear any "I toldya sos" from you two!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> I'm glad it worked for her. Otherwise, my opinion hasn't changed about what *I* would have done differently if given the opportunity...

Hey Grad, I'm not gonna say a word to you, except that I'm happy that you took a look at this post. And that when two people truly decide to get their acts together, I think the MB stuff works very, very well. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

K,
You said:
"And that when two people truly decide to get their acts together, I think the MB stuff works very, very well."
I agree. Then again, whenever BOTH people decide to make a commitment to the concept of marriage (despite whatever they are FEELING at the time), my guess is that they find a way to overcome obstacles somehow. This is what I observed in her post. Somewhere along the line, both of them decided that their dedication to the idea of marriage (despite their respective disappointments in each other) was more important than anything else at the time.
More than anything else, I find that this philosophy prevails between people who manage to have a life-long marriage. Not being "in love", not having radical honesty, not being totally intimate.
