Noticing a few trends, I thought I'd do a mini survey.

Age at separation (you/partner)?
Sex (you/partner)?
Who left?
How long were you together at time of separation?
Current status? (Separated/Divorced/Piecing/Reconciled)
Time since sep?
Partner's status?

I'll start ...
35(M)/36(F) WAW T10 S->D (6 months) NM(with new man)

It would be great if as many people as possible could participate.

Thanks,

Max

I'm just interested in the stats, looking at people's sigs makes me think there are definite clusters. I want to know if it's just me or really true, I need data, data, data and the more the better.

Max?

Why?

Letting you know that this makes me think you are putting together some sort of study.

Age at separation (you 34 /partner33)?
Sex (you M /partner F)?
Who left? - She did, stayed with friend, then I kicked her out fully.
How long were you together at time of separation? 6 years
Current status? Not complacent. Rebuilding. Sorry don't like the
Time since sep? 22 mo.
Partner's status? Married to me.

Hard numbers do not really help here.
Telling someone that well statistically based on your numbers you have a 23.4 chance of reconciling...

At least with hope it is 100% as long as it lasts. Know what I mean?

Jack,

I'm not putting together a study (other than looking more closely at a pattern I think may be present). I'm curious, from a purely personal level, to see whether the numbers do follow the pattern that seems evident from people's sigs. I know there is nothing you can do with the stats on an individual level, but I think it might say something about a stage some people pass through which I find interesting.

I certainly don't mean to offend anyone and there is no ulterior motive other than my own personal interest. Apologies if it causes any offence.

Max

You didn't offend Max, just letting you know what went through my head.

IMP awhile back posted something like this: Totally paraphasing here.

If you were told that 99 out of 100 marriages could be saved doing X, wouldn't you do X?

Well what if you the other 1%?

Sorry Imp if I totally got that wrong.

I never gave myself a satistical chance. Even if it had been a trillion to one, or a trillion to zero...

Not trying is 100% failure, guarenteed.
