I don’t know why everyone is piling on OP and if he were a woman the advice would be totally different. If OP and his wife have lived in separate residences while he’s been overseas he is probably eligible for an immediate divorce. If I were OP I’d cut my losses and get a divorce. If his wife makes that much more than him he’d be the one entitled to alimony from her. And while she’s entitled to half of his pension and retirement he’s equally as entitled to hers. So it may not be that much of a financial hit overall. Life’s too short to tolerate miserable people.

Not sure what’s stopping you OP. Doubt she will object. Tell her not to come before she quits her job.

I’ll take have if $4 million. She’ll be ok, as will I.

Why would I assume that? I don’t know, maybe because typically when somebody lives with somebody else they usually split the cost of rent or mortgage unless one doesn’t earn money? Yeah crazy assumption on my part. 🙄

Your marriage sounds nuts and I don’t know why you feel the need to announce that fact here.

As to verbal abuse, let’s turn the tables and ask whether you would put up with being yelled at and called nasty names in public because your DH was having a fit over some stupid thing? I don’t think so. My W cannot regulate her emotional responses.

I’ll accept lifetime alimony from her. She made $230K last year. She doesn’t need it.

So you were antagonizing instead of helping when shopping. Basically goading her into a negative reaction.

She's your wife, so there's no rent. The house is hers just as much as it's yours. Yo think because you throw some money at her you deserve having your ass kissed. PP clocked your type. Insufferable narcssitic ahole.

So how is it that she is living for free in your house? I assumed she didn’t work.

Because OP is a piece of work and is equally abusive obvious in his 200 threads on the topic) only person deserving of empathy is the daughter

This.

Don’t come on here. Most women on here hate men and side with the women always. The women are always the victim and men are evil. This site is filled with miserable women who hate men.

Well, he wasn’t asking a question or even saying he just needed to vent. He’s just shouting into the wind about how his wife’s behavior is divorce-worthy. OK great, go file. No need to wave your fist at a cloud.

This. It’s very likely your career has prevented any form of long terms stability or family life. A purse is the least of the problems. It’s probably an attempt at filling hole in her soul.
