Was my wife ready for marriage

by Nick J
(Memphis)

I have been married for a little over a year and have known my wife for 3 going 4 years. I keep asking myself if she was really ready to be married.


I love her dearly and would do anything or her that is possible. My problem is I think she has a lack of respect for me and our marriage.

She goes clubbing at least twice a week and goes on girl trip with her best friend often.

My issue is how she dresses sometimes and when she goes out of town. I have to ask her for all the relevant info, I never get to know where she is staying or the exact time of here leaving and coming back.

I believe that if she has respect for us should ask I'm leaving @ X time, going to X place, Staying @ X hotel and leaving @ Y time.

Is that asking too much of your spouse?

"You gave us counseling without making either one of us feel that you were taking sides.
You always maintained your impartiality with us. You encouraged Rita to be more assertive in stating what she wanted to get from your counseling sessions, as well as what she wanted to get from the relationship.
You taught both of us better communication between ourselves, which lead to an emotional comfort level between us that didn't exist before.
You took control of the direction of the session if things were not moving along.
Thanks so much
for helping us."
