I have to agree with Pegasus. Has your wife always been this demanding and unreasonable? Has she always been able to control you like this? Insisting that you cut ties with your Mother is ridiculous -- you should NOT comply with that demand! You only have one mother -- but you can ALWAYS get another wife!! Your Mom needs you right now. And i'm sure she will need you in the future. Tell your wife she made an unreasonable demand and you shouldn't have agreed to it, and then go see your Mom!

You need to start sticking up for yourself. You need to be the MAN of the family. That's not to say that she doesn't have any rights -- but she does NOT have the right to set down any LAWS for you to follow either! Marriage is supposed to be a "partnership" and yours certainly is NOT.

You two need some marriage counseling. She needs to learn that she's not a dictator and you've got to build up your self-esteem as someone else mentioned. You should do this BEFORE you attempt to bring a child into this marriage. You two have a lot to think about, such as is this marriage going to be saved?

I wish you the very best. God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee
