I will give you my opinion. IMO the only difference between a WAW and a WW are one of two things. Opportunity or values. The bottom line is in both are not happy in their current relationships and perceive that there is something better out there that will make them happy. A strong woman with values will walk away from a perceived unhappy relationship while a weak woman will latch on to another opportunity prior to walking away.

With three young kids your w is going to find it difficult to find the fantasy suitable mate she is looking for regardless of her looks. That's just the reality of it. I read a profile of an attractive girl on a dating site that read "single mom of three young children, now everyone don't line up at once".

At 2.5 years my guess is if your W was going to look back it would be at the 2 year mark. She was probably temp checking you and based on your interactions realized she has more time because she could tell your still waiting on her. Trust me they know.
