I think it's dangerous to base any kind of rekindled relationship on the feeling by the WAS that while they don't want you, they don't want anyone else to have you either.
This was exactly the situation I found myself in last December. I didn't intentionally do it for a response, but I sure got one. You will get a reaction, but it's not based on you W's affection or desire to have you back. They are very prideful when it comes to something like this and it really has little to do with you. It's especially a sensitive issue when there are kids involved.
If your serious about wanting your W back, this is not the way to do it long term.
"It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare." -Mark Twain
