This reality upset her fantasy greatly as she cannot have a serious cohabitating/marriage relationship with POM and her current lifestyle.
Her getting upset ... from your perspective, was it a good thing? A good wake-up call? Or did it plunge her into something more unhealthy?
What would happen if, somehow, she realized that the POM has zero interest in her? For example, POM's girlfriend finds out that your W has been too friendly w/ her boyfriend, and confronts your wife. That would destroy her fantasy. But does that help her see reality better? Or only push her deeper into a delusion?
