I agree with all the comments . Reading what your wife said, hard for me to believe , she is someone who is refusing flat …it seems she had a thing or two but doesn’t want you to know …she wants to do things on her own terms without giving you the slightest idea , especially if she asks you, if you have anyone on your mind ?!!
I am sorry to say this, but someone who says she dislikes a person because he is arrogant etc…trying to distance him from being the center of attention in her pursuit, so you wont blow her cover …and I think for her not wanting you to talk about you watching, thinking that you will drop the subject if she tried to shut it off with her reply
I might be wrong, but to me, that’s not being truthful, and what is bothersome, you both as a couple should know , if she is indeed going behind your back with this neighbour she claims she doesn’t like ,that’s not right…
And I think as one of the posters previously mentioned, that’s a response some women do to try to shield themselves from any blame , not wanting to share such experience with a spouse….selfish on their part…If I may say
