[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are marrried to an overgrown princess who is never going to grow up. Just treat her like the child she is. [/quote]

+1. I was going to write something similar. Since I believe in equal opportunity call outs, I am sure she was like this from the beginning and at every step of the way and you enabled it. While I think your wife sounds awful, seems weird to draw the line at year 20 and not year 2. [/quote]

It has been a work in progress and spending has gotten worse.

Only a portion of our friends are very wealthy we have plenty that are what I would consider average income for this area.

The helping out part, I have always cooked meals, driven kids, coached, team managed and paid a housekeeper for weekly cleaning.

The problem isn’t her working or not, or your feelings about her hurtful way of expressing her disappointment. The problem is that she has unmet expectations and apparently feels no agency or responsibility in changing things.

I’d call her bluff. Next time she says it, say “you don’t want to feel like I’m ruining your life and I don’t want to hear you blaming me. Which one of us is moving out? If you don’t want to, I will” [/quote]
