Henry--I tend to agree with Fluerette's idea that you should go and pick her up at the airport--because by doing so you would be "taking charge" rather than letting her continue to manipulate the situation as she so skillfully does. HOWEVER--had you thought of consulting with your therapist about this? You would do well not to leave her "out ofthe loop" if you are asking her to work with you. I hope that in the near future you can undertake some family therapy, so she can consider the "whole package" you aredealing with. Each family member plays a special role in keeping this pot boiling-- your wife can't do it alone! The steps you have taken to resume some control are positive, it seems to me--but your therapist is in a better position than any of us to judge the family dynamics. A family which operates on the basis of so many "secrets" needs some fresh air! That's what the outside perspective of a trained, objective therapist can provide for your use. Fingers, toes, and eyes crossed here in your behalf! :-).
