Hi RJ...<P>I'm in a similar situation though we haven't tried the counseling sessions yet. Well, at least you've acknowledged the blunder you made in the session. I'd try very hard to be an "observer" and "listener" when you're at those sessions. If you're having trouble talking outside of the counseling, being in the counseling room, you will have at least one hour where if you're quiet you can really get to the bottom of what's eating at your wife's heart... you can then address those emotional issues instead of perhaps defending yourself or whatever...<P>Cheers!<P>------------------<BR><I>As iron sharpens iron, so does one wo/man sharpen another...</I> Prov 27:17
