but... W came to me back in February wanting to talk about the possibility of reconciliations!! I did never pressured her for that. In fact, SHE texted me, at that time, "I don't understand why you haven't tried to fix things... or even brought up a conversation about it, Denver" ... that text message was a few days before we first talked about reconciliation...
NOW 2 months later, the idea of real life is so difficult for her to contemplate that she falls for fantasy b.s. that OM throws at her?
I simply don't understand it. I don't.
Simple (but also MUCH easier to see when you're not in the middle of it, granted):
People tend to value what they don't have, more than what they do. And they tend to respond strongest to threat of loss.
