[quote=Anonymous]You're upset with your wife and making an issue out of something that isn't.  You can't change her, period.  There's no point in trying to convince her to be "more social."  She's not interested in doing this, and I don't see why it matters to you so much except that it's frustrating to you that you don't have the same interests/goals and you can't control what she does.

She didn't say not to join, and she isn't stopping you.  She just said she doesn't want to do anything there.  She's not trying to make you do things differently, so why are you trying to make her do things differently?  Join if you want to, or don't.  But don't make it about your wife.

It sounds like you need some couples therapy ASAP.  Your DD will be fine in terms of socializing -- she'll be in school full-time next year, and she'll have plenty of socializing.  Personally, I wouldn't join a country club for what you're looking for unless you want to network for your career (which may be what your DW sees this as and isn't interested).  Otherwise, just enroll her in some general classes for things like tennis, soccer, whatever, and do your own activities or social events as desired. [/quote]
