>/shon/ realizes that their wife was always a lot more normal than she portrayed herself as
You don't say? It's very easy for a hiki to declare him/herself broken and stop trying, especially if they can make money at home. With the schizo shit suppressed by meds, the only thing that differentiates Shondo from a normal woman is social anxiety. In other words if she forces herself to talk to a man irl she'll no doubt be scatterbrained at first but eventually she'll become as comfortable as with the Barbies, then she'll get a good dicking and potentially overcome most insecurities. Tic tac, time's running out. You have a few more months to become that hypothetical man by approaching her.
