You really helped me see the light and realize I need to stand strong on this because I was about to fold. Thanks again and I'll keep you in mind whenever I need advice!"

"Thank you so much for your advise. Since receiving your e-mail I have confronted my partner on the problem and we are successfully working it out. I think one problem was that I was playing the Giver too much and letting her be the Taker. Now we are working on Give & Take, together. Your advise has improved our relationship! Thank you for your kindness--it's because of people like you in this world that I believe there is still goodness."
