Ah, so it’s one of those “They got what they asked for, but not what they wanted” things.

This is the key line of the article, imho:

... several of the women I am now working with are re-thinking their decisions, wondering if they left too soon, or for the wrong reasons. They want to reconcile with the men they have left behind.

It's this that separates the men from the p*ssies (sorry, neutered androgynous men). I can see bending someone, even considerably, to make a relationship with someone worthwhile work. I've done it quite bit over the 20 years I've been with my wife. Successful marriages in this day and age require a spirit of give and take from both sides.

But the minute a woman abandons a guy for another guy is my breaking point. Efforts to reconcile should be met with a firm "You made your bed, now go lie in it" response. And I'm being diplomatic in saying that.
