Literally everything you've shared makes you sound unwilling to compromise (at best). Candidly, you seem to take every opportunity to throw your wife under the bus. And that's not cool. [/quote]

I posted to ask for help to compromise. If I was firmly against doing anything I didn't want to my mind would be made up and I'd not need to be asking for advice. - OP[/quote]

You’ve received several suggestions for compromises. Which ones seem viable and something you’d like to suggest to your spouse? Then we can all move on. [/quote]

This.

My guess is that he'll suggest therapy rather than renting or buying a second home in the small town.

The sad thing is that I bet his wife is so accustomed to making sacrifices and doesn't expect him to do anything for her. In fact, I bet she would be easily pacified if he merely suggested he's open to looking at rentals. That might actually be enough: acknowledgment of her feelings, and openness to a solution.

I don't think suggesting therapy for HER will go over well...primarily since I don't believe she is the problem.[/quote]

The other suggestion on the table to is for everyone to move to the large town/small city  in the middle. [/quote]
