I fairly recently had my heart completely broken. My husband just decided he didn't want to be married anymore and wouldn't talk about it... I was devastated. Part of me still is. Though, I did move on. I'm happy now. Unfortunately, I speak with him from time to time - unfortunately in that it refractures my heart to speak with him. I loved him more than I have ever loved anyone. I probably won't ever love anyone with such reckless abandon again. I too wish him the best and only want him to be happy and successful in his life. I have thought to myself: what if he changes his mind as some point and decides he wants to get back together? My answer is a resounding no. I can't open myself up to that kind of hurt any time I hear his voice.
So, my advice from the 'other side', go ahead and call her. Apologize if you like. But be careful with her. She has made a great effort to move on and be happy. Don't wreck that for her. Even if everything could maybe... maybe be great again, respect her very difficult road she has walked in trying to put her life back together. Good luck with a tough situation.
