I just read Dr. Harley's Plan A/Plan B description. He states that Plan B should be implemented after a "reasonable period of time". Any specific thoughts on how long that generally is? Thanks for all of your replies.

I don't think there is a specific time frame. It will depend on how much Plan A-ing you've already done, what you think Plan A cane still accomplish, and how close you are to the end of your rope. <P>Plan B is something you go to as a last resort. Once you get there, most people are already beyond the point of where the relationship can be salvaged. In my opinion Plan B is the WS's last chance to see what they are losing. It's a chance for you both to experience life without the other and see how it really would be. It's hard, but it's a good thing. Most people don't want to do Plan B because they are afraid it will mean they won't reconcile. Sometimes it's the best thing that can happen for both people. Don't get me wrong. I believe in marriage and would love to have that "happily ever after" thing, but it's just not possible with some people.
