Wayward Wife, my addiction, advice needed

[SciDad]

My DB'ing is always more of 'stay away from the W', rather than interact with her

Trumpet, I agree that it's tough to detach without being distant, to show love without pursuing. But I think that if you hit the sweet spot between these extremes a drastic change can occur (Either in you or in your W).

I also want to mention that DBing is especially tough on those with daily interactions with a spouse. It's far too easy to get caught up in trivial matters or create drama over a minor slight.
