But... he remained consistent... and more importantly, he remained open and began to listen to her wants and needs as well (as MoJo and LFL have suggested HD also do with Mrs. HD).
I think that it is very important to note that the consistency should be a prerequisite to the step of meeting her wants and needs because HD shouldn't be trying to meet her wants/needs in order to get more sex. This will only lead to resentment or escalation. In a way, what I was trying to convey is that he should consider to what extent he might be more LD himself if he did go out of his way to meet her needs/wants. For instance, if he ended up with a happy, horny wife but also a two hour daily commute to the country and a chicken coop to clean once he got home he might become the LD spouse.
