Does anyone else have a W who has never been into feelings, gifts, cuddling, talks, affection, etc.?
In reading lots of relationship books I find it's hard to apply the advice because she's not typical. She doesn't want me to listen more, or express my feelings more, or plan romantic things. In fact, our problem is more that she needs to be constantly on the move, in the lead, taking charge, with no time to consider people's feelings. She's very independent, has few female friends, and prefers hanging out with "the guys". OK, sure. Some of this is good and exciting right? But, in our case, unless I'm very careful, she can quickly dominate the relationship. And by having a lower need for affection, she can easily end up with all the power.
Anyway, none of the typical advice pertains to her. In fact, entire books seem not to apply. Does this change anything about the DBing tips?
