M35, Married 1 year.

My wife, who is generally submissive and follow orders like a good teammate, since just recently has been throwing tantrums and nagging. Probably due to comfort setting in. She's the type of woman who works out, doesn't drink/smoke, takes good care of my home, is generally very sorted in a life. Whenever we go out men are always checking her out and she knows it.

One day we were having dinner with my dad, and he simply pointed out a mistake she had made in preparing gifts for her parents. My wife lost her cool, took it on her ego probably, and behaved in a rude way with my dad. That was totally uncalled for, my dad was generally being "the big man" trying to point out a mistake in a humble way. No where did he step out of line. But her reaction was totally out of line. I did not like it. I cannot stand for toxic behaviour in my house especially when it is uncalled for. And my dad means a lot to me to, he's been a good father and taught me invaluable life skills.

Immediately when my wife spoke (shouted), I corrected her, and told her "that is not how you speak." Never have I felt the need to correct her in the presence of others, this was the first time.

For the following two days, my wife is visibly pissed, not talking to me. I can sense that she feels guilt for the way she acted. She slept in the other room the first night. I didn't GAF. I proceeded with my routine: wake up at 6, work out, head to work, come home, go for a run, eat dinner, work, read and sleep. The following night when I call it a night and switch off the lights, my wife gets close and holds me tight, trying to initiate. I was sleepy as hell, had a big day the next day, I didn't react and I fell asleep. The next morning I proceed with my routine.

She works in my company (work from home) and takes care of the home, cleaning and cooking. She texts me "I spoke to xxx company I worked for previously about a job. They are willing to take me back and I'm taking it." I don't reply. I knew she's just trying to get a reaction from me. I sense it is an empty threat. (fast forward, that's exactly what it was)

When I return home, she says she wants to talk. I say "about what?", she says "about that dinner with dad." I told her "you need to cut shit out, that was clearly disrespectful. You have a choice, family comes first, or I'll bring the divorce papers and you simply have to sign it."

She goes all mad. Says "Ok I'm leaving for my mom's, send the papers to me, I'll sign it." I say "OK". In the meantime, she's packing her things, returns her wedding ring and a diamond necklace I gave her (my dad gave to me to gift her), and leaves. I didn't react. Didn't even say a goodbye, didn't even walk her to the door.

15 minutes later she returns. She apologizes and tells me she'll never repeat it. Then she throws a shit test "I thought you will come after me after I left to stop me from leaving, but you didn't." I said "I was gonna. You returned too soon."

The proceeding night she dresses up in erotic lingerie, gives me a treat for my eyes and we have pornstar sex. The following morning I suddenly wake up at 5:30 with her mouth moistening my morning wood. We proceed to bathroom sex and shower together.

This shit really works. What shit? STFU. IDGAF. My frame not hers. Dread.

I didn't flinch to her threats, I showed her that she is discardable if she doesn't behave (divorce papers), didn't get all whiney and apologetty, didn't stop her when threatened to leave. Didn't try to "keep her" when she said she's quitting my company. They come around still. They always do.

THIS SHIT WORKS.
