Another thought: I think we use the term Walkaway Spouse/Wife to encompass more than it was intended to encompass. MWD described this as a particular syndrome and although DBing, or parts of DBing may be effective in many marriages in crises, WAW syndrome was not intended to describe every situation where a spouse wants to leave a marriage.
Agreed!
I agree that every spouse that walks away from a marriage is a walk away spouse ;-)
Wouldn't you agree that a spouse who walks away from a marriage is a walk away spouse?
Well, I understand how one might feel that way but in the context of MWD's work, including this website, "Walkaway" has a particular meaning and I think it might become confusing if we refer to every spouse who initiates a divorce as a walkaway, but perhaps that's just me?
