Well, if I misunderstood, then my bad. I thought you had mentioned several times about her being on the computer while down in the basement or in her room....instead of being with the family (and especially you).

I may not have set the best example of a boundary (after all I am the AWAW), but it was only an example.

I do believe men need to stand up to their W's.....if they want and expect to be respected by her, and if that is seen as "controlling" by her then that's too bad. That is why people have choices. She can choose to respect your wishes and abide by a boundary, or she can leave. Yes, it is her house, so does that mean you can bring in a woman or have an A right under her nose? Not if you respect her, you wouldn't. It goes both ways, and I bet she'd let you know a few boudaries if you ever tried to have an A.

I have seen over and over how you fear your W getting angry and "freaking out" when she doesn't like something. You walk around on egg shells all the time b/c you don't want to put her in a mood. Talk about CONTROL, what do you think she has been doing to you? She controls her entire family with her threat of being in a bad mood.

Well, I think she has ran the ship so long that you are the one who is sunk now b/c she isn't going to give it up.


It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
