But I have little compassion for WAW. They quit on the M and R and left their H and their family.

Well that's what a WAW does. Can't be a full fledged, card carrying WAS if you don't. If you're expecting a WAS to think and react the same way as you, the LBS, that could lead to maybe why you're having that block.

I would gladly have done anything for her and the M and us but was never given the chance.

So, until I get past that, I am going to have a difficult time being her "friend" or having compassion.


Are you expecting the "chance" to be issued by invite? It probably won't be. You are being given the chance, but it requires being her friend and having compassion and letting the resentment go. Ah, what a process, where the answer to the riddle is the riddle.
