While I don't know your whole story...let me get this straight.
You...the LBS wants your wife, who had an OM...OMW(WTF is that?) To contact said OMW...to apologize for her part?
You would be a glutton for punishment.
That's right up there with rubbing your wife nose in her shi t, and pretty controlling on your part. I am glad you think she might need to do that...for who exactly you or her?
After 3 years of piecing, I can say the key is to forgive, and not bring up their the mistakes as if you were lording it over them. Oh don't forget, but STFU about anything you said you forgive them for, otherwise you didn't.
Even mentioning this to her, implies that you feel she was more at fault than the OMW...really what exactly is an OMW?
Sorry Pup, normally I give you wide berth, we have similar ideas on the importance of standing up for one's self. I also respect your advice on New Comers, and I know we offer different advice, yours is better with WAH and mine of MLC, but in this case Hopes idea struck me so horribly bad for continued piecing.
