Do I just say the heck with it or honor what she is wanting. I know your going to tell me to honor what she is saying but I have to tell you I just don't believe in this. Go ahead, let me have it.
I think you have to choose your battles and slay your own beasts, and in this case you'll just have to ask yourself if this is a deal breaker for you. Are you so committed to this belief that you will not budge, and will be okay with divorcing based on this alone (obviously there is more than just this going on, but if you're so adamant about having it your way regarding this sitch, then it warrants the question I'm asking)?
You've said you're a controlling person and were one in the M -- just wanted to remind you of that so you can reflect on this situation with that in mind. On the flip side of that coin, it's okay not to compromise on things that you have very strong beliefs in and that will cause you to sacrifice who you are and what you are about at your very core. Is this one of those beliefs?
