Ah, Strange Bro, I agree totally, a WAS tries so hard to convince themselves that they are happy, but their actions and body language show the truth. BTW, I chuckled too.
You know, one thing I have learned is that when you chase someone they run away from you, but when you stop chasing them, most of the time, they wonder why and start to chase you. Isn't that just crazy? I guess it's that whole wanting something, they don't think they can have thing.
But this is the enigma, that is the WAS, First they run from us, and try to find what it is they are looking for, then when they think they have found it, they find out it's not what they really wanted. In the meantime, here we are, at first chasing, trying to help them and trying to open up their eyes, but they want away from us so bad, they just can't see, the problem lies within them. They blame us, and treat us like dirt, wanting us to change, all the while knowing that deep down they are the one who need to change, so they can be happy. Go figure on that one, Bro. I did tell my W, that she is doomed to have one failed R, after the next, because it is HER who needs to change, for HERSELF. I'm not sure if she really got what I said, but only time will tell in her eyes, if I am right. I know that I am. Take Care, Bro.
