My wife wants another kid

Please, for god's sake, make sure you are using a condom and don't take her word for it that she's on birth control.

(I'm a woman and a former full-time homemaker, fwiw.)

Not everyone has a dysfunctional relationship. Partnerships work when there's trust.

If you approach marriage antagonistically, you're going to have a bad marriage.

Trust has to be earned. "Trusting" someone who is actively mistreating you is not a means to improve your relationship. It's a means to help escalate the abuse they are subjecting you to.

Thanks, I'm careful. Unfortunately, that stress reduces the fun and frequency.

I'm waiting on a larger study to confirm or dispel the results of that small study that showed significant risk of aphasia and FTD associated with vasectomy.
