This isn't an inspirational story. It's a reality story. I looked through the success stories (most of which are pretty old) and didn't see any cases where it worked after divorce. It also seemed that most of the stories weren't about separated people.
So I searched the internet for remarriage to ex-spouses. There weren't many hits on that either. So basically we are left with anecdotal acccounts of people that remarried their Xes. So what do you think the odds are? I've heard a fairly high quote, but I bet reality is like .1%
I guess that wasn't real inspirational. But knowing the odds or hearing success stories doesn't change the fact that we can only be the best people possible, be happy with who we are, and get a life. The ball is entirely in the court of the X whether they want another relationship with us.
But it would be nice if Michelle could provide a success story or two from people that were divorced. But maybe "divorced, but not done" doesn't really fall into the category of "divorce busting".
