I'm definitely no expert in how to re-engage with a WAS. I do think friendship (in conjunction with a healthy romantic spark) is a great thing in a relationship. I just don't know how well it works as the first step in reconciling. Maybe someone else can weigh in.

For me, it's just hard as hell. I've been getting along with my W better than any time in the last 13 years. We laugh, we talk, we tell dirty jokes, but I think the spark has died out.

I think that accepting the next invite might be wise. If anything, it might give you and her a chance to reconnect. Just don't have any expectations. Let her come to you.
