[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You be his springboard, OP. She will never change, but you can be there for him. My mother was like this and she never had any idea what was going on in my life and she never will, basically. She even answers for my children now! Hopefully your wife has other good qualities.[/quote] I agree with this poster. You cannot make her change. You can provide alternative modeling for him (waiting for him to respond in his time) and make yourself available for him by spending quality time for him, sending him texts/emails, and giving him structured choices when you are together.
