<<The odds of each of you successfully and independently fixing yourselves and then finding each other and there being a new spark that equals or surpasses the old one seems so astronomical to me -- which is why I would LOVE to hear from someone who experienced that. I would have LOTS of eager questions.

I've seen such a story on another board.. he replied to me in fact as he thought our situations were very similar... his girlfriend left him after 4 years to find her independence,he initiated NC right away, 5 months of it. He worked on himself and 2 years later they got back together and he said it is the best thing that ever happened to them. Ill send you the link if you want , it was good reading and very well wrote.
