I agree with a point up the thread that when the two people want to make things work it is more likely to be successful. However, if one of the two isn't committed to such it isn't.
I know of people who have made it work. The therapy was good for them and ten plus years later they still have a relationship that works well.
I can tell you though this was not my experience. My husband at the time was convinced it was all me at fault and that I was wrong to demand he grow up, act his age, and end the life he was living separate from ours. He willingly went to the first and only therapy session he was so convinced that the therapist would put me in my place. When that didn't happen, when she basically told him to act his age and stop being an idiot, he was stunned. He honestly thought she would support his ridiculous antics and behaviour. So what happened? She threw her arms in the air and told me I better make a contingency plan - which I did. I learnt from that one session that my life wasn't going to improve until I made it improve alone.
