Ungrateful/Argumentative wife
Discussion

I don't think that it is that simple.
For example, my wife and I have our own separate bank accounts but we don't have separate finances.
We do. We each put some money into the joint account which comfortably covers all household costs (food, heating, children’s costs, holidays, petrol etc.) and the rest we invest or spend as we prefer.For example, my wife and I have our own separate bank accounts but we don't have separate finances.
It’s no stranger or inconvenient for us than is us wearing different clothes or having different cars.

Whatever you do... DO NOT have a baby.
You already know what you need to do. Get on with it for your own (And her) health and wellness. You're clearly not compatible.
Yep, get out now while you still can. You already know what you need to do. Get on with it for your own (And her) health and wellness. You're clearly not compatible.
Lived with a woman many years ago (didn't marry) and things just didn't feel right after a time and little things started to annoy me, all this time she was collecting baby stuff and storing it in the spare bed-room. Tonnes of toys, mobiles and all manner of baby paraphernalia.
I never really wanted kids (I was 26 at the time and she was 29) but it just seemed the expected thing to do.
Then I just snapped and said I can't do this anymore and left. Never looked back.
It would have been much harder to change my life if a kid was involved.

If a person describes their spouse as "ungrateful", it makes me wonder if the the problem is with the spouse.
That's true, and is probably why it is better to focus on incompatibility rather than blame.Some people just aren't made to live together as part of a couple either , but social norms push them to it.

I don't think the OP is coming back, and if he does I doubt he'll act on any of the advice..
Past 4 or so threads started by the OP have an opening post and nothing further so I suspect you'll be correct. bigandclever said:
He'll be back in a year with a baby that doesn't look like him but he won't want to do a DNA test because he trusts his wife and doesn't want to offend her.
Then she will kick him out of the house and he ends up renting a studio flat or moving in with his parents. She will force him to continue paying for everything and then a few months later move her new boyfriend into the house who she honestly wasn't seeing beforehand, it's just a coincidence.OP will then be angry that every time he goes to the house he is paying for to take the child out that probably isn't his for the day he sees the boyfriends car parked on the drive.

She now wants a baby
Of course she does, that's the only reason you're still there. You've not fulfilled your requirements yet.You can either leave just now by your own choice and be free or be kicked out when you're a couple of kids down and spend the next 18+ years paying for a house you don't live in and kids you get to see once a week (if you're very lucky).
But you'll stay though, because "things will be different when the baby arrives".
