I call it groundhogs day around here because when a new person comes to the board and I read their story it is to the point where everything is predictable. The script the WW uses. The begging, pleading and denial the LBS does/is in. Are there one offs? Sure. Does everyone think their sitch is different? Yes.
Does it mean to lose hope? No. I can tell already that you will be fine one way or another. Now I can tell you that there is evidence to support that at some point you may have a good chance to recon. AS (please chime in) has in the past indicated that he had surveyed something like 12-13 LBS in real life and they had indicated that in (AS correct if I am wrong) in 10 of the instances the LBS attempted recon and I believe in the majority the LBS had already moved on.
I'm at 8 months from living with my ex and I am starting to see cracks in her foundation. Recently her contact has increased with me and I was just away for work and she texted the day I was leaving "I hope you have a safe trip home". Now does it mean she wants to recon? Not necessarily but I still must be on her mind.
