Dear Thelma: My wife and I can’t seem to get along. Should I leave?


What am I doing wrong as a husband?

I have been married since 2013, and my wife and I have two boys aged four and one. I run my own company, and she is a housewife. My income from my business is decent, and have some rental income from my real estate portfolio. I give my wife an allowance amounting to RM4,500 a month, which I consider good.

Things between my wife and me are not good. We quarrel almost every day about everything, from the smallest thing to matters related to another person (usually a member of her family). My wife always says bad things about my mum, but most of the time I just keep quiet when she does as she usually does it in front of her mother. And yes, my mother-in-law lives with us.
