I, and my DB coach disagree. You know your spouse better than you think. Take the quiz and answer the way that you know he would answer. Don't think too hard - use your gut. Hear his voice in your head.

And when the opportunity arises, use it. I had success on at least two occasions defusing a fight and encouraging forward progress (that my W then backed away from, hard). These instances create memories that the WAS has a hard time reconciling with his/her internal dialogue about you.

Squash that dread. You are actually doing work, growing, improving. It's your H with his head up his arse. (Middle English intentional)
