Assuming there's no problems (won't make decision until verifying that first), what other impact would this have on my relationship with ww? THAT'S what I need help with.

Wouldn't moving out be better stress/anxiety/resentment wise so she actually cares enough to initiate and miss me? Allows me to go dark.

My DB coach told me that MWD prefers the couple not to S so that wayward spouse would have more access to the positive changes LBS is making. In my sitch however, while my W did seem to initially miss me more when she moved out, it was much more helpful to my own mindset and wellbeing with her out of the house. And remember, even though I know it's hard, decisions shouldn't be made based on how you think it could impact your W. Instead, focus on what's best for you and your kids.
