If you think you two were happier in Thailand, and you're from there on one side of your family, why not move back? I'm really curious to see what she'd say if you suggested it. Then we might find out if the homesickness theory is correct or not.

So by logic, YOU are part of the "culture" that has negatively changed her.

No, I don't think that American women are insufferable nags.

I'm trying to get to the POINT of your thread because if this were really just about your marriage - you would be talking to your wife and not us. Is the point of your thread that American culture has turned your 23 year old thai bride into an insufferable nag? Wouldn't that therefore mean that you believe that most American women are insufferable nags? I have a feeling that this is actually the whole point of this thread.

If you want to work on your marriage - then that needs to happen WITH your wife. Perhaps with a marriage counselor as well.

It can't be a part of the problem. She doesn't know. It was more of a curiosity thing in the past than anything serious. But even if she did know, that would be no excuse for her unreasonable behavior. I'm still trying to get to the bottom of why she's behaving so passive aggressively, and immaturely.

She's the only one who knows for sure. We can only speculate, and you don't agree with us, so it seems that you're wasting your time here.

Ask her if she wants to move back to Thailand. Her response could give you some useful feedback. It's a harmless enough question.

I have talked to her, many times. I already pointed that out. Yes I think that american culture has made her this way. Not all american women are nags, but american culture is not healthy, and this is why I think moving back to Thailand would be best. I've mentioned this to her and she seems to agree.

Well, then, you have your answer. Best wishes.

Then, again, what was the point of this thread?
