Ironically, that's when my WAW stated to respond. The only problem was much time had passed by then and it made it more complicated to resolve lingering issues.
You get to a point where your not sure you want them back and you never would have thought you would get to that realization when your crisis first starts. All this self development you put yourself through, especially through DB'ing has a positive affect on your own self-image. As time passes, your no longer willing to settle for less. If your S has not resolved their issues in tandem with you during that same period of time, you start to notice an even grater emotional gap between the two of you.
"It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare." -Mark Twain
