As someone said in my thread, it's an insane double standard. I held out for my WAW for a long time. Even after she announced her engagement to her OM, I stood true. Finally one day, I caved, I gave up, I figured she's not coming back, and let myself get involved with someone. We had but a few weeks left to be D'd and XW showed no signs of wanting to fix anything but destroy me.
Now, 3 months post divorce?
"We can't be friends, we can't fix anything" because I moved on. But yet, she can be engaged now for 10 months, 8 of which she was still married to me, but heaven forbid I made the transformation from LBS to WAS.
