Reuben,

We did some of the questionare but not all of it. When I looked at his sheet he prioritized: 1) spiritual connection with partner 2)independence/freedom/autonomy 3) financial support 4)an attractive spouse 5)sexual fulfillment

What makes him passionate/emotional is striving towards success in terms of career/work/money. H does love our kids and I can see that in his eyes when he is with them.

I have been doing everything I can think of to meet his needs. I do think not asking him questions will help alot and hopefully that will help him open up to me more.

As far as ML, we always make sure we both have an It does take him longer now than it use to.

men really enjoy feeling like there W are satisfied and pleased by them.



I think that is a really great point. I have been validating, appreciating him, etc... for months now.

Is it possible to have the passion/emotional connection ever again after all of this?? H told me that we have never had that kind of connection. I beg to differ. You know, the believe 1/2 of what they say stuff....

Thanks!!!! nik
