GD- I was thinking about your question, and I'm not sure it can always be cut as a man/woman thing. I think it has to do w/ personality types. I am a pretty laid back person, but I am also logical. I'm trying to imagine myself as a WAW and how I would react to thinking my H was seeing someone else. For me, I would probably react w/ logic and tell myself that gives me even more reason to walk-away. But that wouldn't be the case for everyone. More intense, emotional types might react very differently. I know that women are usually characterized as more emotional than men, but that is not always the case.
