Can anyone advise if good or bad idea to ask WAS to read DR? My husband left about 7 months ago and seems to not want to work on the marriage. I've backed off and let him do his own thing, but feel like I am stuck waiting. Could this help?

No way. DR is for you, not him. If you have him read it, he will think your changes were only a ploy to try to keep him.

This is especially true if he is not in a place to work on the marriage.

Short answer-
No!
Longer answer-
DR and DB are for YOU. It helps explain Getting A Life, 180's, cheeseless tunnels, etc. It's for saving you, first and foremost, and in the process hopefully the marriage.

If you show him the book and then do a tip that you found in the book it will look insincere and look a 'ploy' to get him back.

My 2 cents. FWIW.

NO. Why would you give away your strategic plan?

Oh. I figured you probably hung around another forum.

I have pretty much been here in newcomers. WAW. The WAS forum seems more geared to women who have WAH and women who are thinking about leaving their marriage.
