You are to take care of you wife. If you're not doing that, she gonna be defiant. If you can't think of yourselves together as an unstoppable revel force, you need to rethink your dynamic. Did she get on the SJW train or what? My approach would be to say, "What the fuck am I doing so wrong that you won't listen to me?" If you get an answer, listen VERY carefully. Then act like you have a solution.

Starting out I was in every conceivable way. That wasn't doing it. It is a protracted problem.

LOL, there is enough dread to go round right now. I read a bit about that and that might have been the ticket, to actually work out and get in shape. That might be my plan to reassert myself, just be a better me. I got a ways to go.

What is she not listening to you about specifically? Is she just being defiant in general or is it one particular thing?

I posted another more detailed message on another comment, but the short answer is everything. To the point that she would ask my opinion about something a or b, and if I said a, she would choose b. Every time. We have gotten that straightened out and now she only asks my opinion if she is really looking for it and we reason through choices better, but it started out as not listening to me about anything and only got worse from there - if such a thing were possible.
