The comments down below were surprisingly split between supporting the wife, and telling her she has gone a step too far. The comments only prove that marriage is a lot harder than what it seems, and that it demands the cooperation of both sides, equally.

Woman decides to buy a house alone after husband refuses to help her make a decision, risking their relationship in the process: ‘He can join if he wants’
Some people go into a marriage without fully understanding what it actually means to be married. While it varies from couple to couple, they all have to understand that getting married means that from here on now, you become half a part of a whole.
Before you come for me, I do not mean that everything in a marriage has to be split fifty-fifty, I just mean that your mentality needs to shift so that every decision you make should include your now legally bound partner, even if you don't want it to be, or don't find it that necessary. That applies both to small decisions and to life-altering decisions. Yes, your partner should know if you plan on hitting the gym after work, and they should know what time you plan on getting home. And while they don't have to know about every item you decide to buy with your own money, they most definitely deserve to know if you plan on buying something major, like a house, for example.
