(Full Disclosure: My W has recently joined TAM and may read/respond to my posts. She and I disagree on the benefits of the advice provided on this forum, but I submit that, like other sites that I read/post to (Affair Care, Marriage Builders, etc) you must decide if the advice given applies to your specific situation. Either way, I welcome all responses, including hers)
Recently, it has become necessary for my W and I to define appropriate boundaries for members of the opposite sex. I have communicated my concerns about male non-family members being in our home when I am not there, and she has both agreed to and has demonstrated (as verified by our adult son) that she will not invite others into the house.
I realize that this situation/dynamic is unique to us. She was not aware that it was a problem for me, and I was wrong in not communicating my concerns clearly to her sooner.
