Well nagging is about things...being irritable can be general. She isn't happy...guessing her emotional needs aren't being met. But maybe she isn't happy with decision about your guys marriage and life. Maybe she is miserable. Ask her to go to couples therapy.
Well she's making life difficult for herself. She complains about things that no reasonable person should complain about, and she doesn't open up and communicate whatever her problem is like a mature person. I doubt therapy will help her.
There was nothing this morning but last night she complained about me leaving a plate outside of the sink instead of putting it inside the sink. And earlier she became very tetchy with me for absolutely no apparent reason, and that lasted for about an hour.
So she complained about the plate again and again? Did you move it? I'm trying to get to the "insufferable nag" part. It sounded like this was a constant, major problem in your marriage.
On the upside, if you divorce her, she still has her whole life in front of her and can take some time to grow up a bit. I married in my early 20s too and still had some maturing to do. You might have just married an immature woman. My husband is my age, so we got to grow together. You sound a little more inflexible and set in your ways, and being yoked to someone you don't regard as an equal can't help much. I hope you two can get to the bottom of things.

That's because she's not a mature person, OP. She's 23. Her brain still is developing. People don't fully mature (with some exceptions) until their late 20's.
I'd ask "what were you thinking?!", but I think we all know what you were thinking. Now you know why it's not recommended for there to be an age gap of a generation or so between partners.

Actually it's mostly me who is flexible and willing to compromise. She's extremely rigid. The insufferable part is in the fact that almost every day she finds something to nag about. And I'm not talking about major or important things. i'm talking ridiculously petty things. She has become very irritable.

The funny thing is, when I met her she was very mature and responsible. In fact so much so that it impressed me very much as she was considerably more mature than most women I've been with. So the age gap isn't an issue. But now that we're in the US she has changed. I don't know why, I don't know exactly what it is but her personality seems to have changed somewhat.
