It really sounds like you want your wife to be happy, that’s not at all unusual in a commited relationship. Ignore those who tell you to grow some balls, I would bet that in real life they don’t treat their siginificant others that way. Ask yourself what will really make her happy, you know her better than anyone on this website. Try to visualize how she (and you) would cope with the worst case scenario. My guess is that her unhappiness would be much greater if you were stuck in a condo for the next 10 years than her current unhappiness for not buying yet. People keep telling you to show her the data for her to understand why now is not the time to buy. If she is so emotionally caught up in buying a place now, the data may not really matter to her – she might even say she’s fine with a “paper loss” because her feelings are overruling logic. So rather then just shoving data down her throat, talk about her feelings and home of her dreams and how you want to make her happy, and that you know you can make her even happier if you just wait a little longer. In the end you will be making her happy if you hold off on buying, she just doesn’t know that yet. Because you love her and want to make her happy, wait.
