My husband and I were on the 15-year plan...taking almost 15 years before we began to understand one another. I wouldn't recommend that plan for anyone. Instead I would wholeheartedly recommend Jay Payleitner's book 52 Things Husbands Need from Their Wives. Wives-read it, apply it, and begin today to understand the man in your life.
