Women do not walk away from marriages with infants unless they are abused or there is another man involved. Especially at the age of 30 and only being married for 7 years.
If there is not an OM then she really despises you because women don't typically give up on their marriage this early.
Thanks for the clarification. The confusion over whether W is a WAW / WAS or WW led me to the title of my thread.
W has talked about how right now we act like we don’t like each other. I’m not exactly enamored with the woman that she is right now, tbh.
She keeps claiming how I’ve continually ‘hurt’ her, and why I keep doing it.
After she melted down on me, she basically told me ‘this is what I’m talking about’—she essentially blamed me for her negative reaction.
If I was as abusive as she claimed, the kids would be nowhere near me, and she would have left (and taken the boys with her) long ago. Not too long ago she was claiming that she wouldn’t leave our condo—why wouldn’t she leave if I’m allegedly that abusive?
She also talked about how poorly matched we are right now, especially with respect to sex / sexuality. Granted, this has been an area of growth for me over the last year especially—but I’ve stopped pursuing her sexually since November (stopped it as a form of pursuit in general).

A WW W/O an OM still resents and maybe even despises their LBS and believes they can do better. It's that "grass is greener" mentality.
Thanks, Mowgli.
The resentment is very strong with W—she’s so upset about past hurts, and she couldn’t get over being pregnant with our second.
She’s talked about how she isn’t sure she can find someone else and BLAH BLAH BLAH typical WAS speak.
Even my L has made allusions to W thinking that the grass is greener.
