I have been giving thought to the sort of letter I might be able to send W. She would not be able to cope with a long list of wants - I know that because if I try and talk about my wants it always ends in an argument and a very turbulent sleepless night. Let me run this idea past you. I want her to read the book but she won't so I buy some top quality writing paper and hand write a love letter including the whole of page 9 (the page where it lays bare what it is like to be HD). With the letter I include a booking confirmation for a night at a luxury old English manor house hotel in the country. I'll make it clear that this is not for a dirty weekend but for us to discuss and plan the rest of our lives together. I will buy the "Understanding the LD Woman " book for me to read as well so the learning does not appear to be one sided. What do you think guys? SuperDave
