I looked at Plan A and Plan B and Dr. Harley states that he suggest the use of these in the case of infidelity. That is not our case. I think ours is normal everyday marriage stresses. If you have more idea on where to look here let me know. I am trying to read around and see where I need to look and where to post he filed for divorce that is why I posted here. Thank you for your time.

Tammi,<p>I'm not "Just the wife" but Plan A can benefit your marriage enormously, and help you grow and change as a person.<p>I suggest you relook at plan A. Discover how to plan A your marriage, just leave out the infidelity part.<p>Also, try information on Policy of Joint Agreements. Buy the book His Needs/Her Needs. I haven't read it, but too many people have said it is excellent.<p>Take care,<p>ANNA

Anna is right, Plan A is just good ideas even if you don't have some messy stuff going on. I wish I was good at the link stuff.... His needs, her needs, BONUS book. The emotional needs questionare is important to any relationship I think. Gimme a minute and I will attempt a link. Drum roll please..... A little assist here anna....

TA DA (i think) http://www.marriagebuilders.com/graphic/mbi4501_enq.html<p>this is the emotional needs questionare. it gives you a picture of what things are important to your spouse and lets you tell him in a non threatening way what you need. <p>it really has nothing to do with infidelity, just a way to say things to him/her that you need as he/she is getting that same chance. when we did ours it was a real eye opener.

Thank you very much it is hard getting around the site when you dont do much internet. Thank you again. I think these things would be great help like the questioaire but it is getting him to sit down and TRY that is the problem. When I am the only one trying I cant do it all on my own. I will reread the Plan A. Thanks....Tami

Another thought would be to ask the judge or family court commissioner to order marriage counseling. They can do that. Still thinking.
