Quote:

I agree with barney. We're not here just because we're HD - in fact, some of aren't HD. We're here because we're "fixers". If my W was HD and I was LD, you can bet your boots that, were I aware it was a problem for her, I would do my dead level best to fix it. Look at the hoops we have already jumped through trying to get our spouses to ML. We have clearly shown that we're willing to sacrifice and work on problems in our M.

Are you sure? For years my wife tried to get me more involved with the kids till she was blue in the face, and I did a lot of foot dragging. It took a while for me to come around to her way of thinking and to start being a more active parent.

The Fundamental Nature of the High Desire Spouse is to lead the way, to beg, plead, push, and cajole. The Fundamental Nature of the Low Desire Spouse is to drag his heels, to be contrary, and defensive.

The number of LD spouses on this board can be counted on the fingers of one hand of an old press operator. Excluding those LD spouses that are spying on their HD spouses, Barney.
