I agree with Mules above, but also note you talking about her having chosen a plan that you didn't agree with and was too expensive.
Kevin, a covenant husband stands beside his wife and supports her EMOTIONALLY, not financially. Have you read the Book of Proverbs? Each man's way is right in his own eyes. A good wife is a wonderful gift but an adulterous wife is like a stone around a man's neck.
Kevin, no amount of financial assistance is going to change her, make her pause, or make her love you. You know me, you know I consider myself a stander, also. But this is not standing.
Being taken advantage of by your wife will not make her see you as strong or dependable. She will just be taking advantage of you and taking you for granted. Don't be her fall-back here.
She made her choices and you have to let her feel the consequences. If you rescue her then you aren't standing. You are letting her get away. You are telling her you are here no matter what she does to you. That doesn't appear strong and she will not admire you for it.
