I woulda considered divorce. After all, what good is a wife who doesn't
communicate directly? Gee whiz, can't you two talk to each other? What's the
sense of staying married?

How do you know she didn't?

Maybe that was the only recourse after either outright refusal or long
procrastination.

Just like with certain neighbors, people pitch a fit over having been 'turned
in', but most often the problem is in their own intransigence.
