Have you thought of contacting bluemoon counselling service?
@Eccles Blue I tried that once, 3 weeks later she paused for breath.Is she going through the menopause? Try and get her to talk to you and see what she has to say.

Guilty your honour.I can understand getting married once but genuinely don't know what's going on in the heads of blokes that do it again.

It all started when they were given the right to vote.
It's all gone tits up after that.

A lad I went to City with home and away for years is now on fiancé number four. He’s 43 / 44. Lost houses, only sees his daughter a bit… It’s a mentality I’ll never understand.

Alex? Is that you?There is literally nothing I can do or say that doesn't end up with her taking offense and yelling at me. If I clean the kitchen it means I think she's a woman who doesn't know how to keep a clean kitchen. If I ask her if she bought toothpaste recently it's not because I want to know if we need toothpaste it's because I think she's a woman who never buys things we need. If I send her flowers at work I'm an asshole who thinks that sending flowers will make up for all of the horrible shit I do like asking if we have toothpaste. One time she literally left me and moved back in with her parents because I... CLEANED THE KITCHEN!!!!!
She has this habit of taking out one of our dogs without a leash or collar to identify him, she just takes him out with nothing. Here's how that went:
Me: He's a very skittish dog who runs away if something scares him, can you please at least put his collar on him so if somebody finds him they'll know where he belongs?
Her: I'M ALWAYS THE ONE WHO TAKES HIM OUT (she's not)!!!!!!! YOU NEVER DO ANYTHING FOR HIM (I do)!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like, I just don't want to lose my dog. I don't think there is a sane person who could argue with putting a name tag on a dog. When I take him out I put a leash on him, he does his thing and we come back inside.
I'm at the point where I can't even talk to her because I'm so sick of the bullshit. I make dinner and I don't tell her it's ready or even offer her any, I just leave it on the counter in case she wants to eat it. I know that me making dinner and setting a place for her at the table will be taken as some sort of insult and I just don't want to deal with it.
Well, now then, mardy bum
I've seen your frown and it's like looking down
The barrel of a gun
And it goes off
And out come all these words
Oh, there's a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer
It's one that laughs and jokes around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah
To get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today
When you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on
Well, now then, mardy bum
Oh, I'm in trouble again, aren't I?
I thought as much
'Cause you turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can't bare
Well, can't we just laugh and joke around?
Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah
To get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember that
On a day like today
When you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on
And, yeah, I'm sorry I was late
But I missed the train
And then the traffic was a state
And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate
That reoccurs, oh, when you say I don't care
But, of course I do, yeah, I clearly do
So laugh and joke around?
Remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah
To get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember that

You'd think after losing a house or two he'd work out it's worth learning to cook your own tea?A lad I went to City with home and away for years is now on fiancé number four. He’s 43 / 44. Lost houses, only sees his daughter a bit… It’s a mentality I’ll never understand.

When I first read the highlighted lines, on paper/screen they almost sound like words of a depressed person.
Interesting to see comments about thyroid come up. My Mrs has a thyroid issue and can be a bit topsy-turvy. Whilst she can sometimes be a pain in the arse, there is a level of truth in what she sometimes comes out with and generally speaking I do get away with murder. I accept I'm occasionally lazy. Not everything turns into a dispute though.
Editing to say that I'm not a professional or diagnosing anyone. Just those two particular lines remind me of things that I myself have said in a depressive moment.
