But my emotions are taking over and I now feel incredibly guilty I have made the wrong decision. Truth is my had is clouded anyway at the moment and I don't trust my own judgement with this. I feel like she wants to be set free and I am the barrier. But there are alternatives (social housing, cheaper rents, different areas etc although she wants to be closer to S school that we are now and move local authorities so he could get transport).
So have I done the right thing?
My opinion is that you did the right thing. It sounds to me like she threw a 4-year-old temper tantrum when you refused. If you're in the store and refuse to buy some random toy your kid plucks off the shelf and they have a meltdown, every parent knows the wrong reaction to the tantrum is to buy that toy! Same with your wife. It would be nuts to give in to her temper tantrum. And her logic is completely skewed, SHE wants to leave, SHE wants to trash the marriage, SHE wants to break up the family, yet YOU owe this to her? That's crazy.
