Married for 1.5 years. I'm 47, she's 42.
My wife is a beautiful, charming and brilliant woman and I am typically overjoyed to be married to her. Our sex life is amazing and adventurous. Because of how wonderful she is to me and my family, I fawn over her. Flowers, making her lunch, and generally making sure she's as happy as she makes me.
She was born in Russia and left for the US at 29, so she's been here a long time. For a Christmas present, I took her to Chicago with tickets to the St Petersburg Symphony and an authentic dinner at a Russian Restaurant and a day at the art museum. We stayed on the waterfront for 2 nights.
At the museum, she spies drinking glasses she likes. They're $9 each and very low quality. She wants them. I say, "Well, those are very pretty, but they're a bit more inexpensive at home". I had no idea, but she was deeply hurt by this.
The next 4 hours were the worst of my adult life. I have never seen this level of hostility in anyone. She systematically destroyed the vacation. I begged her forgiveness and through many tears we held it together.
Now back home, she's ultra sensitive and wants marriage counseling which I am all for!!! The sooner the better.
My question is what provokes a woman to the level of hostility? I agree that my comment was awkward, but i swear to everything holy that it was well intended and with a smile. I really thought I was helping.
Truly, my marriage was hanging by a thread and still we have not had sex this week. she's "just not ready". I have never understood cruelty or why one person wants to destroy the piece of mind of another with literally no provocation. I am willing to do anything. Advice is welcome
Thanks.
