    It is interesting that your wife would actually be ballsy enough to say, "Well why don't you leave then," because any wife who genuinely wanted their husband to stay would not risk saying that (he might actually do it!). Futhermore, she refuses to communicate with you and spends a lot of time on the computer...AND she took up smoking even though she knows you disapprove. I am reluctant to say this, but it could be that your wife is attempting to get you to take the first step toward separation. Although I've never been married, I have caused many a boyfriend to separate from me by acting coldly, rarely communicating, and provoking them into anger so that THEY will break up with ME, not the other way around. It's the coward's way out, and it sounds to me like your wife is doing the exact same thing that I have done. To test this theory, I'd suggest that the next time she suggests you leave, you say with all seriousness, "All right, then. I'll start packing," and then pretend as though you will actually leave. If your wife shows little to no reaction, she's probably relieved for getting what she wants (as I was). If she becomes enraged (not just annoyed, because that's easily faked) or bursts into tears, then I may be wrong about her and you should sit down and have a real serious talk about how you're not going to put up with her behavior anymore, because you shouldn't have to deal with that.
