Minkerman and his wife were hanging out; but she still seemed to want a divorce (or at least to prolong the separation). He got fed up and said "fine. I'm done." She called the next day to get back together.
Abbey gave up. There is some big thing happening that she isn't disclosing, but her main point over and over is that she had really given up. Her H is wanting to find a way to reconcile.
SallyM- Her H was with an OW, kinda dawdled when it came to getting papers filed. Finally she stopped fighting him; figured that she was headed for divorce and she would be okay. (In other words, dropped the rope). H did an about face.
I think it depends on HOW you say the door is ajar. If it is couched with "if I you pull your head out of your rear and I happen to be available, I *might* talk to you" then maybe. I think the WAS needs to actually WORK to come back. And if that means eating some crow, then good. NikB is the perfect example of being too available initially. (Per her Husband).
And yes, I know I need to take my own advice. Just not to that point emotionally.
