While it is something we all gained via an awful situation (being left in a marriage) I do believe the LBS has gains.
For the first time in my life I have really learned to see and examine things from the other side. And I think it was Jeff who said it is important to do so not just through "your lens" but really see it from the other side.
My IRL divorce support group really cements that for me. While their marriages may end all the members really can walk away knowing they learned how to see things from all angles. I rarely think the WAS ever gets to that place.
