braveheart,

That is so very true. I would suggest he send her an e-mail or letter opening that door. She may actually be dying to ask for forgiveness but needs him to make a tiny step first. The real question is the following:

Do you love that person enough to take the first step?

I do not normally think enlisting family members is a good idea. However, I think I would find a good excuse to talk to her sister and tell her flat out what the deal is. NOTHING ABOUT THE PAST. I would say something like, "Since my D, my life has really come together. However, I think it would be so much richer if exW and I could be together someday."

The thing I am thinking here is the exW could have sent the sister on a fishing expedition to see what you would say.
