MrBond,

I have a question for you.

In another thread, Where the WAW may be coming back, you mention that to be sure the WAW is ready to come back they must show a couple things.

1) They must agree to MC or IC or both-- I understand this

2) They must agree to transparency-- I understand this

3) They must apologize and Understand what they did-- I understand the apology part.


I am wondering how to tell if they truly do understand what they did?

When the apology happens it is easy to accept

I am trying to picture this in my mind wondering what it would look like.

WAW apologizes, the apology is accepted, Then does the LBH go into how what WAW has done has hurt him or just hope that WAW continues going on about what got her to the point of walking away and what made her realize she wanted to come back, all the while validating,empathizing and listening?

It is probably a very common sense answer that I am just not picking up on.

I don't think I am close to this happening to me but I always like to have faith.


Everyone is welcome to comment on this I just referenced MrBond because he posted it
