Gordie: Pulling it all together 2

[Gordie]

My DB coach has emphasized that I need to create emotional connection with my W. Her primary LL is quantity and quality time and I am giving her more of that than ever before when she is open to it. My challenge is that sometimes she doesn't want to be with me so I have been figuring out what to do during those time. First, I give her space away from me and do my thing with the kids or myself. Second, I do acts of service that can be done not in her presence. I find that she notices and even says thank you sometimes and it reduces the tension between us. Am I doing the right thing? Any other suggestions?
