I'm getting advice on other forums to "lovingly distance " myself from my wife.
Although i never engineer time together we seem to spend a fair bit of time small talking and doing things together as a family. The events just seem to happen W initiates as much as i do.
We almost behave as a married couple with family and at the end of the day go to out separate homes. I believe it feels strange for me and my W when at the end of the day we go our seperate ways.
The general DB view (from guys) seems to be don't do any of that. Listen when she wants to talk but that's about it.
