I remember reading a story that a WAW wrote about how hard it was for her to reconcile with her LBH because she had spent months telling everyone what a horrible, mean, angry, vindictive person he was. So to get back with him was to admit she was wrong about all that. She said by the far the most difficult thing she had to do was go back and explain to those people that in fact it was HER that had been a little bit crazy, and she had finally realized she was wrong about him. The story made me wonder how many marriages never get restored due to a WAS's pride, I imagine there are many WAS's that come to the same realization eventually but pride prevents them from being able to explain themselves to everyone involved (including their LBS).
