Limerence and My Situation 4

[Painful]

The number of reconsiliation stores here and elsewhere are so few and far between, that it is difficult to draw any conclusion from them.

It sure does look that way, doesn't it? That's why I was VERY surprised when I read AS's message:

"I've related this story before in other threads, but back when I was going through S and D I spent a lot of time asking my male friends and relatives about their own divorces. These were all guys that had a WAS, not the other way around. None of them were DB'ers, but some of them just naturally took a DB approach while others did not. Now granted this is a small sampling, I think we're talking about 15 people. Of those, only 2 of them reconciled. So that would be, 13%? So you might look at this and say "AHA AS, see I told you, even in your own experience barely more than 10% reconciled!!" [b]But guess what, I asked all those LBS's how many of their WAS's approached them about recon. Are you ready to hear this? 100%. Every last one of them"[/b]

I think most of us assume the low R rate is due to WW/WAW's leaving for good, moving on, and never looking back wanting to recon. AS's message goes completely against it whereas 13 out of 15 LBHs didn't want to R. Can that be true? It certainly blows my mind and I'd think the same could be said for Parkema, Btrow, and dozens of other LBHs currently posting here with their stories.
