My wife joined those creeps a little over a year ago... And she does so all those stupid things you mentioned...reading from a tiny book,
Spending way too much time "praying"...daily mass...sleeping without a pillow...
not going to mention how some aspects directly affect me...

And yet she seems to think it's all good...

Ps: I'm actually shaking, after reading this... (what an eye-opener) thanks!

Sorry to hear that Sad  Most of the supernumeraries in Russia are married and their spouses are not involved in OD, we were the first supernumerary couple in Russia, even received a letter from OD Prelate. It's easier for supernumeraries whose spouses are not in OD, they can always 'blame' them for not letting them to go on a retreat or for using contraception.
I can only suggest watching some videos with Escriva's public speeches in Argentina or Peru, I don't know why but when you actually look at him in videos instead of reading his books you can see what a sneaky, unpleasant and bigoted person he was. I would also recommend giving her the book by Maria Carmen del Tapia I've mentioned, it helped me a lot.
