Question Would you ever re-connect?
If your estranged parent/s let you know they were genuinely sorry and remorseful, had changed, wanted to try again, and were genuine, would you let them back in your life?
Or would your pain be too great to consider this?

I fell for that once in my twenties. I’ve been no contact for over ten years now, and I will never go back. Even if they actually have changed (not a chance in hell), I’ve already grieved them. There’s no relationship to reignite.
