there are certain basic things that are really not negotiable. where i come from, minyan is one of them. if you want her respect, you really have to push yourself. think of her point of view-i married someone who can’t even go to minyan-what will my life look like,how will my kids respect this-don’t look at it as an attack-she doesn’t know what to do-you would help a lost kid by going out of your way-it is just as much of a chesed(more) to go the extra mile for your wife’s happiness.Show her that you will do this for her,and you will see her light up and ungrumpify really quickly.Explain to her that it is very hard for you and perhaps you can find a way to make it easier.
