I have decided to make a point of being alert for an opportunity to make a positive comment to my wife each day. This has evolved from a suggestion by Kaffe Diem to make a list of the things that i like/admire/value/etc about my W. Is this at odds with detaching, or otherwise the wrong thing to be doing? I have tried it a couple of times since resolving to do so.
I have tried to be honest with myself as to my motives, and i believe that i am acting without expectation. I am just worried that i may be unconsciously ???? (insert unhealthy behaviour here) i don't know what.... aarrggh, i am prone to being over analytical.
