My W seems to be from the same mold as yours I think. Her past is her business. She doesn't have any goals (I have asked many times). She lives for today and doesn't spend any time thinking more than a few months ahead at the very most (she has no appreciation for retirement planning!). She doesn't open up to me or anyone and doesn't seem to have that need. She doesn't even want "to talk about her feelings" like the stereotypical woman.
The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.
