Is it me or is it her? Opinions please
Something has really been bothering me, and I would love your opinions. I'm going to post three recent scenarios. Please tell me what you think.
#1 My wife and I were delivering one of our puppies to her new home. Since we didn't have a harness for a small puppy, we placed her in an cozy box and W held her on her lap. At some point it was necessary for a pit stop for W. No restaurants around and I know she doesn't like gas stations. "I don't care"! she told me. I took the box and played with the puppy while waiting. She came back to the car with a brown paper bag and got in the car. After getting settled, we get back on the road. Out of curiosity I asked what was in the bag. "A bottle of wine. I didn't know what you wanted so I didn't get you anything".
#2 It's dinnertime and we are preparing our plates. Shake and Bake porkchops. One of our favorites. W is hold both plates as I need to hold the baking sheet to pick up a porkchop. I put a chop on a plate. W placed the other plate in the grease where the porkchop just sat, turned to the counter and finished preparing her plate.
#3 We are shopping at the outlets. As we come out of a store, she grabbed my hand and pulled me next door. "I want pizza"! At the counter she placed her order. W turned to me. "Did you want anything"?

But - based on the many posts you've posted and the odd/confusing/baffling approach you have to life, I have a feeling it's "you" too.

We already know your wife is somewhat childish and not thoughtful. Still true in these examples, but again you are fixated on random little things. Since you asked. 1-Would I have said I'm getting X, do you want anything? Yes. Or maybe not. If I saw a

The more I think about this........
Early in our marriage, she came home from shopping after work showing me what she bought. I remember her saying, "It was only ten dollars", while showing me item after item. She had said that many times before.
Quite possibly! Also, the way you described the scenario makes her sound self-centered.
But three things:
1.) People on this board keep asking you to look at yourself. Have you asked your wife how she would like to be supported? Have you lo
Who/What is MUD? I only ask due to seeing "MUD" mentioned a few times.
Reading all of the OP's posts, I'd say couseling and leave the wife stat!
You can analyze and hypothesize and post "objective" questions for strangers on the internet all day long and it won't help your situation.
Ask yourself, "from this point in my life forward, forgetting the past, what is it that I really wan
