Just wants tot write and say a big thanks to ML for the recent guidance.

I have not been an easy poster to deal with and I have resisted following the MB principals to the letter and therefore was posting here for 3 years with issue after issue and more dramas than I could count yet never resolving much and continuously being in a state of false recover.

Following a last stand with H and having reached the stage where my marriage was truly headed for divorce and a broken family I came back to post one last time ( despite having withdrawn from the site after annoying quite a few posters and having my thread locked) and ML you were here once again patient and forgiving and helped me have an actual plan.

I gave my H my requirements ( following MB mainly) and he committed to those requirements.

It's now been around 3 weeks and the MB magic is starting to work.
H is committed, we have been reading and working with the MB principals and I am finally starting to feel like I am in a real loving marriage and wanted to say a big big thanks to ML for her patience and guidance when I returned to the site seeking help once again.

I appreciate all the helpers and vets however the person who I managed to offend the most and disrespect the most was ML therefore I wanted to say a personal thanks to her for her kindness and forgiveness.

I see many new posters resist the advice they are given and would love to find the words to explain how much damage they are doing by doing their own mish mash plan. I did that for 3 years and it got me nowhere. It is true that the road to recovery is a narrow one and there is no leeway to veer off course.

I am sure I haven't got everything figured out yet but thanks to the help and support I get here I feel like I can come to a safe place and vent or ask without judgement or people holding grudges.

Although a massive amount of credit has to go to the creator of the MB program I feel that this site would not be as special as it is without the patience of the dedicated vets who interpret the MB principals and work with the new BS and WS on a daily basis.

This is just a personal message for one of those vets

" ML thanks you very much for all the 2x4, guidance and patience that you have given me over the past 3 years, although I am sad that you wisdom has come as a result of your own personal pain I see how much good your guidance and help does to all the lost spouses that come here for advice, I am grateful for your forgiveness and willingness to guide me despite my bad attitude and for not giving up on my family and I just wanted to le you know that I am grateful for that.

You are a sweetie, NB28, and I appreciate your kind words! Am glad to hear you are seeing an improvement!
