Ryan is someone who actually sees her for who she is and not as some idealized version like her ex husband. Hell, most people that actually met her are seeing her for who she is without prejudice, which is tragic, considering the person she was married to didn't even try to understand her and was only controlled by feelings of misguided hatred.
Annette at least tries to correct her wrongs (she never even committed in the first place) and become a better version of herself while Heiner is still stuck in the past, in a constant state of cognitive dissonance.
