Would it be useless to give His Needs Her Needs to a man who has been separated from his wife for 10 years? I do not know if they are divorced of not. Likely, they never went to marriage counseling. Neither remarried. There is one child. Father has not seen daughter for over 5 years. Wife hates husbands guts and is keeping child from him. It tears him up inside, because he raised the child for the first 3 years of her life while the mother went out and did her thing. (I do not know what "doing her thing" means) He was doing drugs and alchohol, but has been clean for 5 years. Do you think that there is hope in this situation? Am I being totally naive?
