I am married 6 years long we have two kids, Me 30’s and she 26’s student depending on me financially. Since last year she was abusing me emotionally and probably cheated on me, because i was acting like a loving romantic pussy, desperate for her validation or reward that never happened. I am not sure about the cheating as I don’t have the proofs, but she had all signs, even flirting with other guys in front of me, zero interest in sex with me, ending relation ship to control me emotionally, etc.

After I realised the really shit i became - a super weak beta provider, i started to change myself in order to leave the relationship for better or last chance for her to change. I am still not 100% but improved a lot myself, started doing sport/gym, flirting and going out with other girls, and holding my frame with her and control my emotions.

Since I started acting like that, my wife is acting crazy, typical from someone that is desperate because lost control over my emotions and me, as I behave now like a free man. But things are going out of control, she’s braking plates, she’s screaming like never before, she’s trying to be agresssive, and trying really hard to pull any emotion/response from me for that crazyness. She started being more sexual, but as soon as I want sex she thinks she hooked me and tries to reject next time in order to affect me or make me again weak, but it’s not happening. Same with the relation ship, i cannot literally lower my defenses/frame one inch that she starts immediately to try to manipulate me.

I am still in this relation becuase we have a small baby, i know , i know.., i should leave. I will most likely do as I don’t see her changing much. What you guys think? Will a woman like this ever give up of the power? How long will she act crazy to try to pull me back?

Sorry for the long post and bad english/mistakes - written on phone.
