// The ONLY time the WAS comes back is when the LBS has completely dropped the rope and let them go. There are no exceptions. It usually happens because the WAS has experienced life without the LBS, has had time to process the hurt, and eventually gains perspective on the fact that leaving didn't solve their problems, that the LBS wasn't as bad as they made them out to be, that they may have had their own role in the breakdown of the marriage, etc. Once they've gotten there (and there's nothing you can do to promote that journey) THEN they need to see you happy without them. //
Was reading this on another thread from Accuray... I totally understand the above...I feel I have been pretty good with non-pursuit of my h, from pretty early on (with exceptions of a few backslides). I also see that distance/time/space has brought him back from the cliff too. However, I have a problem believing how this can work for me, when we work/see/speak together so much...how will my h ever experience life without me, when I am right here. How can the "heart grow fonder" theory work, when I can't be "absent"? I keep our convo's mainly about work.
This exact question was part of my original question from day one about owning a business, how can this work for me? I have been wondering for a long time.
