WAW left on Independence Day and not communicating

[bustorama]

Hey hurtin, me and at least one other person (didthehurt) also imploded our M's with EA's in the past that boiled back to the surface again 2-3 years later. Particulars of your story are different than mine (see my situation in my sig) but the W's stated explanation of one of the dealbreakers being the past EA is the same.

For any of the vets on here, are you aware of past situations on this forum in which the person trying to do the DBing had committed infidelity and in which DBing (and DB alone) resulted in reconciliation. It seems some acknowledgement of the EA or amends-making or trust-building is necessary beyond LRTing? Or have you seen cases in which pure LRT really did make the heart grow fonder for the WAS and decide to come back and give the LBS a chance to make amends and help them heal?
