We started MB in Feb 2012. We have not progressed. My husband has good intentions and says all the right things but I do not see any thing in his actions that convince me that I can trust him. I struggle with resentment.

I believe that he should not be pushed into doing MB but should want to do it.

At the present momentI see no hope for the future and need wisdom to decide on what to do. Divorce is not something that I look forward to but it seems to be the only solution....

Please support me in prayer to make the right decision and to know what that decision should be?

OBHG, I'll pray for you.
How would you feel about posting on the SAA forum and glean from the wisdom there?

Please post there with an update on your situation. Whatever situation you are in, there is a MB plan for you to give you the best chance.


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!

If your wife is not on board with MB, some of my posts to other men might help you.

OBHG, I read through your posts and can't find how the EA ended and its origins. Was it a coworker? What have you done to confirm that the EA is over? Who was the OP?

Please respond on the Surviving an Affair forum and bring us up to speed. You haven't been following MB. What you've been doing isn't working. How about you give MB a serious try?
