View submission: Advice on Spouse Decisions
I agree that’s how it reads, but I don’t think we can/should assume too much from one Reddit post. Assuming OP is likely frustrated and word choice isn’t ideal. No sense in reading more into it and giving a diagnosis. A counselor is a good place for them to start though.

I agree the post is a just a snapshot in time - but I think that's also why I'd urge getting to a counselor straightaway (as you do to!), either *before* these types of thoughts become engrained (because contempt and parent/child dynamics are so harmful to partnerships), or to recognize: *hey, I love my wife and I'm noticing that the way I'm thinking about her right now isn't going to help us work on our finances together...I think I need some help here and I want us to be a team.*
