She is holding on to one percent for her "if all else fails" plan. Yes, the WAW who is in an A will use her H as her back-up plan if the A doesn't work out......or if she can't make it on her own. It also a way she keeps her hook in you. Telling you she was 99% certain.......gave you that tiny 1% hope. It was her way of leaving the back door unlocked if she decided to come back.
And, it certainly worked! She planted a 1% seed, and you are going to grow it into more than what it is. B/c that's all you can think about.......and you keep wondering why didn't she say 100%......and does it mean she is having second thoughts. No, it means she is looking out for herself....regardless of what it does to you.
If men would see how women work them, and start calling the shots instead of waiting around to see if she ends her A and goes back to him...........she would stop jerking the H around.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
