I'm not saying thats not possible marvin. But i think it is so so rare.

I think that when they do come back its usually more of a grass is greener situation. LBS usually loses weight, gets their act together, might even have another romantic interest and suddenly WS is interested again. But not because of true remorse or committment. More because they see benefit for them.

But Let's pretend that you won the lottery, or perhaps found this magical fountain of youth and beauty and your wayward spouse wanted to come back. (After leaving you for a wealthy partner or younger woman) would you take them back? And if not, what's the difference?
.
They usually leave when life gets tough..kids, sickness, death. Then your life improves and they want back.
But they aren't genuinly committed so what happens if sickness strikes again? They are gone.

I have shamefully read these boards obsessively for 3 years now. And i see tons of LBS that are back on here years later after reconciling.

And here's the killer. I have an acquaintance that is a walkaway. She was actually reluctant to date a guy that had recently left his wife cause she thought he could possibly go back to her. She knew this cause she almost went back to her LBS when she found out he met someone. She told me how she cried and how LBS was immediatly ready to dump new girl for her and that's when she was reminded that she didn't love him.
