Regarding my "begging" comment, ok maybe that was too strong of a word.
What you will notice if you comb through these threads (mine included), if the LBS has not made the WAS work (and by work, I mean over a sustained period of time) to prove their sincerity in the desire to reconcile, one of two things will happen.
1. You will reconcile and there will be another BD after the honeymoon phase. 2. The WAS will drag things out, be uncommitted (even though they say they are), and buy more time to continue their affair or their desire to explore other options.
Someone mentioned the book Love Must Be Tough by Dobson. I highly recommend that book in this situation.
When the WAS is ready to R often times they will beg. Usually it is because the LBS has moved forward and isn't willing to give them another chance.
