I guess this question is for those WAW's out there. Do you want your H to fight for you? Do you walk away just show your H what they lost hoping they will see and fight to get you back? Are there sign I should be looking for from my WAW?

Do you mean BW as in Betrayed Wife?

I don't get WAW.

Are you a WH?

I think they mean Walk Away Wife. Not sure though.

I'm not a WAW, but I think if you want her back, you need to tell her exactly that.

You need to do what you can to get her back for a certain period of time before you call it done and assume she isn't playing head games with you.

I wonder if I qualify as a Walk Away Wife. I guess it depends if leaving after years of going to MC alone because he wouldn't counts.

CZ, sometimes leaving is like Plan B, the final attempt to demonstrate that the marriage is about to dissolve unless the other spouse takes dramatic action.

Sometimes, it's simply because the other spouse has gotten to the end and nothing you can do will make him or her reconsider.

Sometimes, it's an immaturity issue of one kind or another. It seems better, easier, safer to simply leave without trying to work on the marriage.

It's really hard to tell. However, if you want to remain married you have to presume the first.

I think it depends on the wife. I think my W would count as a WAW. In her case, I don't think she wanted anything but to get away from a painful place to be, that place was our home. If you want her back then it doesn't matter what she wants from you, you have to fight to get her back. Now before you go and fight with emotions like I did take the advice of the people here and do not back her into a corner. Go read His Needs, Her Needs and Love Busters then go do whatever you can to show her that if she should choose to give you another chance, you will be there waiting with open arms ready to meet her needs and give her a safe environment free of punishment, judgments and demands. It will take time and effort as well as restraint and control on your part but if you can make her see that there is something there for her other than pain or discomfort she will come around. That being said, if she is having an affair, go read Surviving an Affair. It's a long hard road but I sincerely believe that if I had read these books the day my W asked for a D, she never would have ended up having a PA during our separation. If I had read these books long before we had problems, we never would have had problems in the first place. They are that good. Don't be rash, take your time, educate yourself and be strong.
