See my post on CONDEF's thread. DB is not about controlling. As long as you are focusing on your W's behavior, choices, and the direction she is moving, you're on the wrong track. That's why we don't like confronting. The idea is about 'what can I do to best influence W's behavior'.
Instead let her go and focus on being the best you that you can be. FOCUS ON YOU.
Can you do that? One question I like from DR is about what you'd do if your wife passed away. There'd be nothing you could do to get her back, or change her behavior. But she'd be gone. So what would you do in that case?
