I believe one distinct difference in a WAW and the wayward is that the WW is not interested and won't cooperate in reconciling the MR........no matter what the LBH tries to do to IMPROVE HIMSELF. The WAW is usually hurt and leaves the M due to specific circumstances.
I was reading Surfer's post and saw this from sandi. I am in a much different phase of my sitch than he, but I do still think about this from time to time. I came here with the idea that I had a WAW, and then discovered the EA, to which W has still not admitted to ("just a friend")... My view changed from a WAW to a WW after discovering and confronting the EA...
I have been doing a lot of studying lately in various topics/cultures, and try not to take much of a "causal" approach to things (cause and effect), as I'm learning more and more about how wrong it is to view things that way and act that way in life, it's part of what I'm seeing wrong with the vision of "human nature." I do kind of think that my W was losing touch, and "planning" a WAW mentality, and in the process, found this great friend that could encourage her to find strength to pull the trigger, and evolving into a WW nature.
Do you all think it's common for WAW-in-the-making can lead to Waywardness in the process? This doesn't really change anything in my life and my plan right now, it's just something I was kind of thinking about with the way conversations are going with my W in the last few weeks. She "seems" like she does care, and she drops lines/verbiage that leans toward her being willing to work on things at some point in the future, but just "not now"...
Regardless, just something that I pondered as I read the post over on Surfer's thread. Nothing really changes, just curious on others thoughts.
