a marriage book where one of the suggestions was to spend an entire month where the focus of everything you do is on your spouse.
But that is not a healthy relationship, Punchy. I think your W wants to have other things in her life that doesn't involve you....and you should have thing without her. Being attentive is one thing, but smothering a person is going overboard.
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!
