and you don't think she NEEDS the Botox


This is the base of my discussion every time the topic comes up. She does not need it. I also never said that I didn't play a part in why she wants it. If you go look at my replies to others I specifically say I should work on telling her MORE often than I do now that she is beautiful. Also said that there is another underlying problem.

I've even asked her to talk with me more on why and that there has to be another reason besides "just to get the wrinkles away". I'm never mean or crude about it either because it's a sensitive subject for her.

In the end you're right I will love her no matter what..but that doesn't mean I cannot voice my concerns in a marriage that we are 50/50 on...

Why do you get to be the deciding factor on that?
Are all of her permissions you grant based solely on necessity? Do you both drive a piece of shite vehicle to get you purely from ___ to ____ because you don't NEED anything else? Do you not go on vacation because..well, you just don't need to. Do you not play golf, hunt, fish, have any hobbies? Do you never go see movies? Go out to eat?

Maybe consider that people do things all the time that they don't need because it makes them happy and you don't let your wife dictate to you what you need so maybe don't do the same to her.

We're not talking about breast implants. We're not talking about gastric bypass/sleeve. We're not talking about a tummy tuck. We're not talking about a 6 month yoga retreat in Dubai. This isn't that big of a deal.

That you can unquestionably make worse by this taking this stance. You need to consider that. Consider your role more.

Doesnt sound anything close to 50/50

Sounds like you don't want to "let" her do things she wants if you don't agree.

Well you said in OP

Am I wrong for putting my foot down about this?


You voicing concerns or are putting your foot down? Those are not the same. One is a healthy discussion, one is making her a prisoner of your will
