Your wife always was what she was, it’s just now she feels free to show it. You have my condolences. On the other hand, I inherited about a decade ago and shared freely with my husband. That worked out well for us, but I could tell you stories of various neighbor women who married, inherited, and lost it all to a husband who squandered it, or became instantly deadbeat. They are still married though, so I guess they were good little wives according to many who post here.
There may be many different traits between men and women, but greed to the point of mental illness happens to both genders. I don’t think women suffer any more (or less) from it than men.
And actually, I think your story was too pat. Too overdone and too flip. It lacked the rage the story, if true, would have caused. Maybe it actually is true, but I am not completely convinced.
