An important component of dealing with an MLC spouse is to keep your footing and firm grip of reality. A lot of what you wrote in that post seems a little off balance. As an outsider why do you think asking her for help and support was a problem and a trigger for all this? What is the point of being married if asking for help means you’ve doomed your relationship?
And what does it mean you gave up your “man card?” How can one rather basic act doom a whole relationship?
This sounds more like the confused thinking of an MLCer. Are you internalizing her version of “reality?” Be very careful of that as you can imagine in her state you don’t want to join that reality.
