JR, dunno about your W, but I just don't think my W is built that way, and she'll never be someone whose foundation for happiness is within herself.
For my next relationship ... when the time is right ... I will be very focused on whether she has that foundation, that depth of soul, to derive joy from giving to a relationship, sharing a life with another human being.
Rather than look to the outside world as stimulation for their empty soul.
