WOW<P><BR>That has got to be to the point of the ultimate frustration. ask her flat out "Do you love me" listen to her response, and then go from there. Alot of people on this board will vote for working it out, as I would, but I am telling you now. If you cannot even get her to follow the rules of counseling!!!! I dont mean drop it right away...........but If you cannot find out WHY she suddenly turned into this control person, ( I would even go so far as to say masochistic person.) Then you need to save yourself. Realize, I only know half the story also. I cant beleive if she is this controlling , there were not signs of it early on . If there wasnt, you need to dig further and find out what happened, she is obviously supressing some unspoken anger, and directing it other ways. Just my opinion, hope it helps
