So looking at Emotional detachment today (yea, Im that kind of guy) and it wasn't long before I found the page that the detaching thread on this site came from. So looking a little further I found this technique that is meant to help and I thought of us when I found it:
Quote:
Stand in front of a mirror and think of some of the nastiest and most hurtful things your wife or girlfriend has said or done to you. Maintain eye contact and practice a calm, blank facial expression or a knowing, slightly amused smile. Practice slow, steady and relaxed breathing. Lower the tone of your voice (higher pitched voices reveal anxiety and agitation). Your shoulders, arms and hands should hang loose. Keep practicing relaxed and detached body language until you actually feel indifferent and unruffled by her barbs, jabs and eye rolls. In other words, fake it ’til you make it.
Hope this helps.
