John,

What is supposed to work for DBing is that you become okay with yourself. You start taking care of yourself and you start doing all the things that your W complained you never did. In 25mlc's words, you become the husband only a fool would leave. In a perfect world, she would realize the mistake she made, realize what a wonderful man and daughter she is leaving behind, and want to work things out.

The reality is that NO MATTER WHAT BOOK YOU READ OR WHAT COURSE YOU CHOOSE TO TAKE, there is no guarantee. The DB point is what you have been doing up until now IS NOT working. So basically, you have nothing to lose by trying this for awhile.

If she is calling you, it is working, even just a little bit, trust me. You tell her everything is great. You make sure to end the conversation before she does. Leave her wanting more. In everything. In the meantime, become that man that she would be crazy to leave.

Hope you have a good day.

Melissa
