I completely agree with Kat....I believe I am in that situation that was described with the second couple. My D will be two years this month. My XFIL is very sick and will not be with us for much longer. I am actually suprised he has hung on this long (untreatable bone cancer). I see my XW and I getting back together when his passing happens. I have tried to stay friends with her through all of this but I believe it will take some major life event for that to happen.
I agree, sometimes people need time apart to grow and to learn about themselves. That is one thing that I am thankful for with the D. Don't wish it upon anyone, but it has been a learning experience.
