This is probably more appropriate for askTRP but fuck it. You have a wife that doesn't respect you. Blaming you for her waking up late when you're not even home? That's teenage shit right there. She also works so that's a red flag by itself. What happens when she's constantly frustrated with you and happens to meet Mr. Plan B on the job? Guess what? It will be branch swinging time before you even realize what happened. Women that respect their men don't pull shit like this. You need to take control and stop rewarding her shitty behavior by caving in like a pussy. If you know things need to be done a certain way then do that and stop giving a fuck what she thinks. Don't ask her what she thinks at all. Just do what you know needs doing and walk away if she tries to start a fight. Best of luck. I've seen this exact scenario play out over and over in the military.

For clarity she does not work, she just watches our kid and does online classes... Which I help her cheat in... She has threatened to find someone else when she goes back to work and says that she will find someone else to talk to because of x y and z problem at that moment. Thanks for the advice!

Damn. If she's threatening to jump then she's already got a foot out the door. You may want to think about cutting your losses with this one. I know there is a kid involved but if she doesn't even want it then why bother? That sounds miserable.

Dude you're being a little bitch. Your wife doesn't respect yoh and it's because yoh tolerate and encourage her. Grow a spine and realize that the woman who mothered your kid is a mistake that you should never have made. Now go read the sidebar.

Start planning for the break up. Consult lawyers, keep logs, etc.

Simple.fuck another woman until she upholds her end of the contract

Fully agreed with Tteabag91, I will add my thoughts however.
You apologize too much (Never apologize unless you ran over the dog by accident, etc)
You are too available to her and have little interests outside your "relationshit"
Start lifting weights and eating better. Get at least 8 hours of sleep. Don't let her get awat with taking your sleep.
Allow her 20 seconds of verbal abuse. Not a second longer. If she continues, get up and LEAVE and say NOTHING. Do NOT answer her text or calls for a few hours.
Come back like nothing happened and DO NOT DISCUSS WHY YOU LEFT. She knows.
If she demands answers, just say "I am not discussing this and find your disrespect unacceptable".
Do not accept marriage counselling. You will lose more respect and money along the way.
She is going to cheat on you (or already has).
Start talking to a divorce lawyer and finding out how you can slowly structure your life in a way to limit financial and health inpact on your life.

tell her to stfu and make you a sandwich. debeta my friend. you're the man, you make the money, she's dependent on you both financially and emotionally. just let it be known that you are not a bitch, least of all hers, and that it's actually the other way around that she is your bitch and should behave accordingly. welcome to trp my friend, you definitely need it.

Visit the married redpill sub for wife questions.

You're fucked, dude. Your wife has you by the balls and she knows it. Things will only get worse from here. All I can say is be prepared. If you make it out alive, turn MGTOW and don't make the same mistake (i.e. commit to a woman) ever again.

Ignore the usual "Bro, dump that bitch" replies, but...
Having been in a similar situation, yes, prepare yourself for her to branch swing out of your relationship.
Buy this book now - "Practical Female Psychology: For the Practical Man" and go straight to the chapter on manipulation.
Your wife has lost all respect for you. Start pushing back on requests that she can do herself ie grocery shopping etc If she says she is too tired to cook, be cool with it and make yourself something.
Dont get aggressive or defensive. Start at the gym (if you dont go already). Be prepared to walk away.
Does your wife have a job? If not then why are u allowing a jobless bum who's living off your hard work into talk and treat u like this? You need to go lift some weights to raise your testosterone levels and man the fuck up boy. If ssh e doesn't work, doesn't shop, doesn't cook... What's her fucking purpose besides having crried your sperm for 9 months and appearing as your life companion to other people?
[–]TheFamilyAlpha 2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
You aren't worthy of dignity & respect, not yet at least.
She performs this way because of your failure to maintain a standard. What she is doing is what you've allowed her to do through acceptance & the rewarding of failure.
Tell me this:
Why do you think you deserve better?
[–]mrbossman1233 points 9 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link
Sounds like she is actively attempting to sabotage the marriage. You need to take drastic steps.

Where is this shit coming from in the last 3 or so months? This definitely new, dudes coming on here asking straightup questions and such.
I've been on TRP for about 3 years and I've always been able to to ID the source of these boluses of posts, but lately, I don't see it.
[–]MaegorDaCruel 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link
So you pay for everything, cook everything...and your wife does what exactly?
What exactly are you getting out of this so called partnership known as marriage?
You need to tell her that her dumbass needs to get a job and stop being a fucking bum.
Sounds like you have 2 daughters tbh.
Can't you legally kick her out? Don't be soft. Would you let a roommate stay with you if he didn't work and didn't pay? Same concept
[–]Pageway0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Step 1: Decide what you want.
Step 2: Ask for it.
Then if you don't get at least as much as you need to be happy, get a divorce.
If she doesn't do anything for you or the household, then you're better off without her. There will be other, better adjusted women.

Go over to married red pill and they will tell you it is all your fault, go to the gym, read some books, lead, take charge, blah blah. At least half of what they tell you will be accurate. Alternatively you can just grow a pair, tell your cunt of a wife that she is a lazy oxygen thief and lose your kid and more than half of your stuff. Maybe you are a troll, why do you give a shit about video games? You have a child, stop acting like one. My advice to you is simple. Stop playing video games, get in shape, act like man, keep your wife in the dark, improve yourself, after 6 months reassess. Stick your PS4 in your ass
[–]Stormtech50 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Lol love the honesty on here. Btw I occasionally play ps4 like once a week and the rest of the time it's a Netflix machine.
