Subject: Well, my first response to the first question is that we never really know the effect of such things. For them, under the particular circumstances, I think it will fortify their relationship, in that the time apart was not by choice. Those things I feel are what you make of them, and for them, I agree with Cindy, it was a place to start again, to rebuild.

  • Q1) As much as someone may tell you, and as well as you may know them, and as empathetic as you may both be, I think it's almost impossible to truly understand what the other person went through. Your feelings, and your interpretation of their feelings, are coloured and shaped by so many things both past and present. The effect it has on a marriage, or any other relationship, depends on how the people involved handle it, are they supportive or dismissive? Do they accept responsibility where warranted? Do they forgive or at least let go of resentments and hurt where warranted? (NT) -- Carla, 17:52:05 10/09/07 Tue
