The piece you've shared has elements of Denver's situation. The similarity is that YOU have played a serious part in this situation that lead to the situation at hand, and you putting your foot down is just ridiculous if you want to save your marriage.
I wasn't referring to "putting his foot down," db. In fact, much of the advice that Robx gave D&C was for him to AGREE with her, and to look-good/smell-good and drop the rope.
Fighting her on this is only going to build up more resistance and resentment in her, in my opinion.

Then I agree. (It's helpful if you just say that a lot when you're recommending someone else's advice, because you probably don't mean their whole ball of wax.)
You can be very helpful purely on your own.
Why not tell what's going well and not well in your own situation.
