She tells you that she would very much like to work out a new relationship with him. He says that he does not want a divorce and is willing to give counseling his ¥st shot. oretta comes to the following session alone because Bart had to work overtime. She tells you that she has been having an affair for two years and hasn yet mustered up the courage to leave Bart for this other man, who is single and is pressuring her to make a decision.
