Why?
Maybe she isn't really on it for 24/7, maybe it just feels like it.
Perhaps its an escape, and fills a place in her life where she can reach out and help others which is a honorable thing.
This is a community of some really wonderful, knowledgeable and likable people, it isn't like its a dating forum or she is cheating on you, people of all ages from all walks of life come together to help each other on the journey that we call life, how could that be a negative if she is taking care of all she needs to for you and if applicable, the family?
If this brings her joy, then encourage her; if it is because you are not giving her what she needs and she finds her joy here, well, that is also her choice. Either way, her mind is still her own and you have no property tag on her back, so leave her alone.

Oh, this sounds so tough I don't even know how to help you besides say I'm so sorry to hear this. Your going through a lot w/ your wife being this way & having to deal w/ all the people living with you let alone trying to support all them sounds hard for anyone to do permanantly. Biggest suggestion is to pray, pray, pray about it. I seriously would consider calling or writting to Dr. Phil about this for help...since I don't know how to fix such a problem. Hang in there! As you know, don't beat anyone! Does she work, if not I'd have her work some so she doesn't have too much free time to dwell on things & nag so much, plus it would help financially (some how she needs to get busier!). If possible set a time frame for the rest of the people to be moved out. Good luck. God bless!

You can't! Whats it hurt? Nothing I to am a wife and my husband would like to know thesame answer so if ya come up with something let him know. I answer questions here 24/7 as well. If her giving advice is a crime them I to am guilty as well. maybe she does it because the people her take her advice and listen to what she has to say maybe you dont and if you did she would stop. Did you ever think of that. I mysel just like to do it because I might be able to help someone out and it makes me feel good just thinking about it.
Well good luck and tell your wife for me way to go keep up the good work.

Have a date night. Take her out and do something out of the ordinary. Then when you two stay in make plans. Like to grab a DVD or make dinner together. Basically, if you want her off the computer, then you should spend time with her. If she is bored, then she has nothing else to do but answer questions...Plus, look at it this way. She could be on-line doing something much worse.

Well she is probably bored and if you took her out or made love to her or prepared a candlelit dinner for her or took her for a romantic picnic, then I am sure answering questions would be the last thing on her mind.
Have you thought of asking her to take up a hobby or sport with you?

sound like to me that your wife need to talk to others and this give her a out let. maybe you need to take the time to sit and lesson to what she need to say. my wife and i sit out side and watch the birds and the cats and the dogs play and we talk about our day and what on our mind. i will tell her the questions i answer and how i answered them and what she feel about it. she at work now and will be gone for a few more hrs. this help me fill in the time and ya i like to talk and i like to give my opinion and i can give it and if no one likes it oh well no skin off of me. so find out why she on so much and then deal with it.. come a live and if need be join in and help out then she may find that all she wanted was you. could work.

Whose behaviour can you control? Just notice that you are trying to control your wife and it never gets results. If you want her to spend more time with you - do something nice for her. Arrange a party or get tickets to the theatre, or whatever!

Be more interesting so she will want to spend time with you.
Invite her on a date at a nice restaurant.
Run a bubble bath for her and massage her feet while she bathes.
Go on a weekend trip together.
Ask her if she misses you, and tell her you miss her.
Ask her if she would limit her time, or first spend a certain amount of time with you.
