However, it's the stress and fear of losing everything that kills us.
This is where all the pain comes from. This thought in itself is painful - it's the pain of losing possession of your spouse, of your life, that hurts so bad. To me, someone that never liked the idea of possessing another, this made me realize that I wasn't living up to my ideals. Let go and let live is the only answer.

Nothing's wrong with us.
I think you're right on here Theo - GAL is all about countering the enormous blow to the self esteem of the LBS. It's almost impossible not to take it personally, especially when the WAS is telling us that it IS personal. We need to recognize that there's nothing wrong with us that drove them away. Their choices brought them to where they are today. We can only have so much influence over their choices. If we look at our personal life, focus on that, we can improve on what is already a great thing. We can live happy, fulfilling lives. Something worth sharing.
