How many here have been married before?

This is a great topic and the kind of discussion the real wisdom comes out of...thanks everyone!

My last marriage was both my and my xw's first. I have to agree with the previous statement that there may be a possibility that the WAS and LBS want to get back together, but have both burned too many bridges. The amount of work it would take to reconcile can be just too much.

BUT, it's been my experience that every long term relationship I've had follows a similar pattern and the grass is not necessarily greener. Sometimes, it can take years but if there's history and you conducted yourself well (and tried to improve)there's always a chance they will want you back.

The trouble is for me that it comes too late and I've become the WAS.
