My WAW - coming to terms with it all!

[WAW_SC]

Just a quick question for those with experience out there.

At the beginning of our seperation, my wife was making the effort to remain friendly and conversations were generally okay, although she was harbouring a lot of anger as i found out when we talked about R/ M

After she made the decision at our session with the counsellor to not continue the realtionship, something changed in her and the walls that were up around her got even higher. She no longer accepts my offers to help her out with things and she is no longer wearing her ring, and although we still talk, it feels somehow a little harder now to relax in our conversation.

I sense she is really trying very hard to be independent again and show herself that she is fine without me. I am not stopping her and letting her take her own journey, just I am taking my own journey. Its confusing and I am curious as to what "switch" gets flicked in a WAW's mind in this process. So much of what is happening to a lot of us out there seems to be so common and have some simple logic to it...human nature.

Maybe some WAW's could help me understand the psychology of it.

AND yes....I am out there GAL and detaching but I cant help but be curious.
