My wife upset when I call to check on my parents and brother

I am 29, my wife is three years younger, and we currently live in a rented house and work in Ho Chi Minh City. I am extroverted, working in business training, while my wife is introverted and employed as a supermarket cashier.

Before our marriage, my wife would always accompany me on visits to my parents and relatives who live nearby in the city. Although she seldom engaged in conversation, everyone liked her, and they consistently offered us food, gifts, and treats.

I continually encourage my wife to engage more with the world around her, but she tends to withdraw into our home after her workday. In addition to showing her irritation when I call my parents and brother, she always declines invitations to join me for meals and socializing with my relatives. She would say she prefers to stay home to rest and save energy for work, even though I manage almost all our household chores after my work ends at 6 p.m., recognizing her fatigue from working from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m.

I indulge my wife as much as possible, yet her responses are consistently negative, regardless of whether my actions are right or wrong, or whether I act at all. She wasn’t like this when we were dating. Now, even when my wife says hurtful things, I ignore them to maintain peace at home. Gradually, I feel myself growing weaker, as if I am just existing rather than truly living as myself.

I do not want this relationship to end because I love my wife, but I am at a loss about how to improve it. What would you do in my situation?
