Hi friends,

I'm over in Infidelity, but thought you guys here might have experience, or heard of someone who has been through, any of the following programs? H and I explored these online last spring, and then never moved toward them. Thought I'd revisit it as a potential Christmas present for us but wanted some opinions from my thoughtful friends here first.

Option 1: Pairs

Option 2: The Third Option

Option 3 (and most likely b/c it's closest): A New Beginning: schedule , and here's the info A New Beginning: Save My Marriage brochure

Even if you've NOT heard of these, I'd love your take on what you read anyway!

I've heard good things about the Retrouvaille workshop although my H and I did not attend.

My H and I were to go to an Imago workshop until my H decided he didn't want to work on our M and therefore we didn't go. We did however take Imago counselling back in 2003 and it was really good. It is what kept us together focused on the positive things in our M for the longest time. Unfortunately, we had stopped going after 4 months because my H thought we were on the right track and we didn't need to go anymore. I guess he was wrong.

Just my two cents...

I'm not familiar with your sitch, but unless you can post in piecing, a gift of a marriage retreat is not a good idea. All it does is remind the WAS that you are in hugely different places.

Best,
Oldtimer
