You say that you applied Dr. Laura's principals. How does the HD partner actually BELIEVE the LD partner when they do this? I wonder because even if my own wife could start changing, how can I ever BELIEVE her. I have to think that the LD person has painted themselves into a corner. Their HD spouse wants GENUINE desire, and the LD spouse has already made it clear that they DON'T have genuine desire. So how does one solve this problem?
