We have started MB since d-day (I feel very fortunate to have found this site.) and H seems very willing. I have found forum very helpful and really think that it would help us in rebuilding our marriage if he could gfet support here too. I wanted to email him info about here, but I haven't neccessarily found an exact topic that I would want to send him. I'd just like him to check it out. Any suggestions on how to do that?

I haven't kept up with your story - sorry - <p>If he is open-minded to suggestions, you might just send him the link to the GQII Forum and tell him you have found many of the topics here helpful. If you do come across something you think he'd be interested in, you could send him that one, or print it and say, "I'd like to get your opinion on this. What do you think? etc etc etc"<p>The web-site itself (marriage-builders.com) might be another way for him to find things HE'S interested in.<p>If he's not very open to suggestions right now, probably the only thing you can do is share with him how helpful it has been for you. <p>just a thought or two.

lorrainegd<p>My H just told me about the site one evening when we were talking. Said something to the effect of "Found this really interesting site the other day. It's really helped me. You might want to check it out." I did just that. Now I am on here more than he is. Or at least I post more than he does. <p>From the beginning, we have found many things on here that have helped us individually. There have also been lots of things that have opened the lines of communication for us. Although I don't know much about your particular situation, I would suggest just telling him about it as my H did for me and letting him make his own decision on whether or not to come visit. I will say that my H mentioned it several times before I just came here. It may take a mention or two or three for your H to want to come see what it is all about. But I think it is worth a try.<p>Regretting

Thank you. I think I'll e-mail the address to him as a first step. Then I'll mention it, ask him if he got the email, talk about what I found, etc. If anyone has any other suggestions, I'm open. I did print out the MB plan and he has been good about reading it and seems interested in trying it. Wish me luck...
