Literally say "so you want me to have raped you?" and see how she responds.

Ah yes, escalation. It's the perfect way to start a marriage, escalating a conflict just to be right. Leave it at "I would never do that, but I can see how I hurt your memories of our wedding night, and that was wrong too".

If she doesn't let it go after that, get a divorce ASAP, because she's the one escalating a conflict just to be right.

Yes, you're right. Being right is so damned important. Definitely demand the internet stranger who knows you're right about the facts of the situation give meticulously and pedantically precise wording to admit your moral superiority.

Just like this guy's wife. Demand she admit she's wrong and he's right about her own feelings.

I'll do my best to explain this.

She feels really really hurt and rejected. Painfully.

His reasoning about not wanting to rape his wife is both morally and factually sound.

But getting her to acknowledge that isn't going to help her feel better, it's going to make her feel like her legitimate feelings don't matter in the face of him winning an argument.

Failing to acknowledge how your actions, no matter how correct, hurt others is a dick move.

Lt. Danger posted:

very much aside from this extremely stupid broader argument: while feelings are always real, I would suggest sometimes they aren't "legitimate", and confusing the two ends up causing further problems - e.g. anxiety produces real feelings of fear and dread, but by definition they're not appropriate feelings to the situation. in a sense therapy is about learning how to deal with feelings that are very real but also illegitimate and as such unhelpful or destructive

Come on, man, it's nominally the most important romantic night of her life. If you can't tell me that you wouldn't feel an unusual amount of rejection if the partner you just committed your life to were apparently not interested, or that such a feeling is invalid because they had a good reason, I wouldn't believe you.

It would hurt. It happens, people get over it, and she'll need to eventually, but come on. It would loving sting.

If I puked all over myself and passed out? No I wouldn't feel an unusual amount of rejection and I would say that feeling is very invalid, borderline insane. I personally would feel ashamed and apologetic.

You know what? That's real fair. My mental story from her perspective glossed that part over a little too hard.

OTOH, I can also see it coming around even stronger if she's afraid of being judged for it, and wants validation, though.
