If you are serious about saving your marriage, you can't get it all on this forum. You've got to listen to the Marriage Builders Radio show, every day. Install the app! Married to my radiant trophy wife, Prisca, 19 years. Father of 8. Attended Marriage Builders weekend in May 2010 If your wife is not on board with MB, some of my posts to other men might help you.

Thanks for bumping this, Markos. We are getting SLAMMED right now. We have been getting about 10 new members a day and it is going to get worse. The holidays always bring in a ton of new posters in crisis. Affairs come out from under the rocks and stress is high in many marriages.
Thanks to all of our wonderful volunteers who are pitching in! If others can spend a little more time here it would be a great help.

CV I don't know, but we sure seem to get slammed every year at this time. My theory is that this when affairs get discovered and tension is high because familys are spending more time together. It is harder to hide an affair when you are off work. Jan and Feb are also very high volume months.

I also think it's great to see some of our newer posters jumping in and giving good, solid MB advice. That is the best thing we can give our newly-arriving posters - great job, everyone!

We have some super folks helping on the board who are very well versed in Marriage Builders concepts.

We've even got self-exiled posters gradually stealing back and giving MB advice! There have been a few of these in recent weeks. Thats a testament to the fact that this forum provides practical help - that works!

Sometimes I get the feeling that my 2x4s don't do much good though.
And is it me or are we flooded with WSs too? Lots more than usual?

And is it me or are we flooded with WSs too? Lots more than usual? I see it too. Seems to me it is a combo of what Mel was saying and maybe guilt and feeling that they could escape it at Christmas time? I dunno. As for your 2x4's... Keep them swinging. They'll hit someone eventually.

Even if the original poster ducks, eventually there will be someone standing behind them who reads it, too.
