OMG. Yes, Starsky is right on. Women are repulsed by men they can boss around. I'm not kidding about this. She has no respect for you. Stop listening to what she "says," I don't care what she "says" right now; pay attention to her actions. You have an open marriage, are you really cool with that? And I don't care how mad she gets when you start righting this badly listing ship. As they say, "A marriage can survive a cheating W's anger, but it CANNOT survive her continued cheating." Draw your line now and enforce it. Stop being scared that it will "make her angry." Take back your self-respect now. Be strong and lead. You must stop role-modeling this weakness as well; it is very bad for kids to witness this. If your kids were adults and in a sitch like yours, what would you advise?
