Hi GG,Hope it's going well for you, did you start yet? My husband and I went years ago, and it benefitted us a lot. Probs. then were a controlling mother in law, all is pretty well since then.
Fast forward to ex T and current T who have both been insistent that we date, get away together sans children (which has yet to happen), and the gift issue has been a big one. Missing the anniv., being moody on a b'day, and forgetting V-day must be signs - you know? We just had our 20th anniv., no card, no gift, a quick dinner out - which was nice, but boy was I embarrassed when my T asked! That was late last year, fast forward to V-day, and you better believe there were gifts, and a card! ; )
I think it can do wonders if both are willing to work for the benefit of the marriage.
I wish you good luck!
