* Be honest about my mistakes.* Communicate this in a different format(letter) with no pressure for immediate feedback. * Provide a basis for him to understand why I am acting different. * take a risk of opening up which I haven't in a very long time.
Then do it. Show him. What are his LLs? Open up by sharing. He knows why you are doing what you are doing.
I don't think the letter is dishonest it's not a great tool to get the job done. If you think that a letter helps in your sitch then apologise for your behavior and share this: "I married you because you're handsome, kind, thoughtful, smart, and have a sense of humor. And you are the strongest, manliest man on the planet."
Short and to the point. A man wants to know you have been thinking about the issues not feeling them.
And what Lotus is saying, don't bow down to him but respect him and be a partner. A man wants his wife to think, have a opinion, be involved, and be supportive.
Cheers
