This is crazy. It kind of reminds me of the Flitcraft story in The Maltese Falcon, except without the falling girder.

She wanted her husband to be like a house. Something to serve her. Something she can renovate and fix to her standards. And when she doesn’t like something she tears it out and changes it. I would imagine she henpecked him the same way she would have treated a house. People aren’t like that and she had a seething resentment toward him.

I love that story within the story! I think about it quite often.
