Well my xww actually said " I am sorry " that she needs to take responsibility for the mistakes she made when she had her affair. She also mentioned that she reflects on all the good times we had in our marriage, the many times I made her laugh, all the trips we took as a family.
She said she is not unhappy, just wanted to take resposibility for her mistake. I said Thank You, I have been waiting a long time to hear it.
Is this guilt she is feeling now?
Today's third party may be tomorrow's spouse who is unhappy in their marriage.

If she doesn't feel guilty, she has no soul.
Glad you could say thank you... says a lot about you my friend.

I've spent nearly a year waiting to hear my STBX say those words - I've more or less given up now. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
I hope they bring you some peace.

All Alone,
It took my WW almost two years to say it. I don't know if it was said to ease my pain or to ease her conscience.
I think that BS's that receive a truly repentant apology from the WS are rare.

My soon to be ex said she was sorry about a week after she moved out, not only in a letter but on the phone and everything, she can't stop saying sorry, doesn't mean if we ever got back together she wouldn't do it again.
