It is not foolish to want your wife and to want to be loved.
Maybe you do slip up and veer from the concepts here. That is understandable. It is hard to put in practice.
You (like most of us) look at progress in terms of our partners love, which is the ultimate goal. But progress can also be viewed with less focus on how W reacts/acts.
It is hard to put up with feeling unloved and a lack of attention/affection. No doubt about that. Maybe you need to find a way to feel differently about that in the first place. Idk
Good luck.
