I find it amazing that people think the opposite of detaching is to be cold & rude. They also seem to think the opposite of being Mr. Nice Guy is a selfish jerk. That is not it at all. It is showing "tough love" by standing up to his WAW and calling her on her BS and not allowing her to walk on him. Can't he show strength this way without being a selfish jerk?
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
