I tried for quite some while, but it never worked. She was intractably codependent and insecure, and therefore possessive; nothing I tried could even get her to acknowledge there was a problem with that, much less do something about it. And, it seemed to get worse, not better, over time, which surprised me. The attitude boiled down to: 'if you love someone, how could you possibly not want to spend every moment of every day with them, and why would you need to spend any time to yourself or with friends?' It wasn't that blatant, but that was what it boiled down to. Eventually I didn't see why I needed to deal with the passive aggression and the fifty questions anymore.
The sex was good though..
Or did you eventually?
Well, note that we are blissfully divorced.. ;)
Sounds like, instead, you then went to the porn rooms to look at the saddest women of all.
Umm, no. Actually I didn't. My reaction was mainly to start working 80-90 hour weeks........
And I don't advocate that all marriages can be saved. You sound like you actually tried to work through the problems by at least showing her the respect she deserved as your wife, instead of running naked to your monitor. Ha!!
