my husband and I are coming to your intensive in a week. I have been listening and following you for over nine months. I believe sex addiction, which he has been assessed for and intimacy. Anorexia are two of the major problems, and of course, betrayal, trauma for me. What can I or we do to prepare before we arrive, thank you

I am so tired of my IA husband. Ive tried forever to improve this. I wish we could afford an intensive. But from South Africa its impossibly expensive.

The title on the video I clicked on was "5 signs you're AFRAID of intimacy, not "5 signs you're AVOIDING intimacy."

Those are not the same things.

To avoid it, there must be a clear opportunity. No such requirement to fear it.

I have all of these issues. My husband wants a divorce, no working it out. I wish there was a way I could work to fix my mistakes and he would stay.
