IMHO you need to stop playing at being your W's therapist. Has she ever seen anyone for her personal issues?
Right now it seems like she wants someone in her corner who is going to let her forget about her troubles. I don't see this as an MLC. This seems more like your W feels she has missed out on 'life' because you're the only man she's ever known. I can see where she feels like life had dealt her a bad hand and she's trying to get some measure of control back. She just doesn't know how.

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
