Divorced-not done-But wondering ?

"Do you find there is a difference between the male vs female WAS in coming full circle and returning?"

There are differences. Women tend to (not all) base things on more emotion than men. When women leave, many times they'll have a fall back plan like having someone to be with once they jump ship. Many times men would just leave.

Either way it really comes down to the individual. If they do the "work" on themselves and go through the trials they need to on their own, they will find out what they have. In any case, the revelation that they usually have to achieve is that their happiness resides in themselves and is not a result of external factors. Think about those times when you see a less fortunate family, but they are happy to be with one another compared to a rich couple who may have everything yet say they are unhappy.

Happiness is a state of mind you create yourself.
