I did not make the expensive purchase. I told her that I was not conmfortable buying the item if we were not going to be staying together.

I agree that she likely had no intention of talking. This has been her approach from day one. Not sure what insight you can provide on this, but as I stated previously, she has no issue telling the OM every thing on her mind, but I cannot get anything out of her re our relationship. What advantage is there to her by avoiding the discussion, unless it is because she is still seeing the OM and doesn't want to end either the marriage because of the kids and her relationship with him.

The feelings of being a doormat come from a willingness to do anything to keep the marriage alive, while the WAW simply stomps all over me with her lack of engagement and taking our marital issues outside of the family.

Part of me was thinking that she may want to keep the vacation property for her and the OM sometime in the future. Who knows what is going on in her head.

It has been a month since I confornted her about the EA. Do I sit back and live day to day waiting for her to decide my future, or do I pressure her into engaging the two of us in some meaningful dialogue?
