I would be very interested in knowing of any couples retreats in the US. I am looking for a long weekend program. Does anyone have any suggestions? If you have visited yourself and have any opinions of the experience, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Juli - it seems to me that in this situation, the problem is akin to an alcogholic 'trying' to reform, but at a dinner table, asking to have the glass of wine or beer passed to him - 'just so I can smell the bouquet'.....
<br>Bigger problem is a small town, and the high incidence of meeting in the streeet - at least you both got into it - and not just one of you.
<br>I reckon that once you've had a bonk with someone, you are more than 'just friends' or even 'good friends', and so the only solution is cold turkey ... as you can feel with your husband, he is now caring for another woman - which is wrecking rule 1 of the 4 rules for a successful marriage....., because he is not giving all that care to YOU..
<br>Maybe leaving town is not such a bad option....
