Is it worth it or money down the drain? Need feedback, please.

Just HOW stupid do you think I am, exactly?

I signed up for the free email course, and it looks like money down the drain.

Also seemed to involve a lot of rugsweeping based on the content of the emails.

The worst part is, the doesn't understand NC or the 180, because after he said it was the last email unless I signed up, he kept sending them for a couple of months.

Your mileage may vary... in accordance with the prophecy.

Do not back up. Severe tire damage.

I had signed up for the free emails short after DDay. I was not impressed with his advice.

If his book is anything like his free emails, I think you are better off saving your money.

Using Mort Fertel’s Marriage Fitness Tele-Boot camp is one of the greatest things I ever did for my marriage!

His advice is amazing.

Putting love first really did change mine and my husband’s outlook on our marriage.

Give it time. You will see Mr. Fertel can make all the difference.

Kind of suspicious that awebercomm8 has made only one post, and that post was in support of Mort Fertel's progam a month ago and has made no other posts on any other subject.

Him - WS - 44

Yeah, and posted that immediately on the day membership was approved. No other profile or anything.

I signed up for the emails and since I thought we were working on our marriage at the time,but knew something was still going on,I knew my husband wouldn't be on board.Hell he lied in counseling so I knew Internet therapy was out the window.

Would you still call them Heroes if you knew how they treated their spouses?

why2008 and Aesir....

This person didn't do anything wrong. People lurk...not everyone jumps in to post on a daily basis. All this member did was post something encouraging on an existing thread.

Please don't be so quick with accusations, imagine how that person must be feeling.

ETA:

Yeah, and posted that immediately on the day membership was approved

Aesir...

You have no idea what the date was that their membership was approved. What you're looking at is the date they ACTIVATED their account. For all you know...I could have approved their registration 5 years ago and they now just activated it. Please don't throw false statements out there.

I bought the CD's and the book - his advice will only work if both of you are committed to saving the marriage - obviously my other half isn't or I wouldn't be on here.

If I can survive this, I can survive anything.

Even if the WS is on board Fertel's course requires the BS to accept a large amount of rugsweeping.

Not worth any amount of money, in my apinion.

My WH & I both have this book & both liked it. It was given to us by my boss who is the only person who knows about the A. Her & her H have read it on more than 1 occasion. It's more about putting the love back in your marriage than a how to get through an affair. Reading the book made us both realize we'd been living as roommates for several years.

WH (him) - 39
