1. It's not clear from your query the actual dispute between two of you.

2. This is more personal dispute,so you have to resolve it personally.

3. To to her and try to find out what exactly bothering her.

4. Take her frequently to holiday trips and outing. It works to rekindle love and affection between two of you. Involve senior family members.

Good luck.

1. Your problem has not yet reached a serious proportion.

2. What you are facing is just the marital tit bit arising out of domestic wear and tear.

3. You are required to handle the situation in a matured way giving up your ego and bring her back to your home.

4. With the lapse of time, she is expected to change.

5. It shall have to be kept in mind that divorce is the 2nd most stressful event in one's life which should be avoided at all cost since you do not know whether your next wife, if any, will be any better or not.

1. You can propose counselling through a marriage counsellor to your wife. If differences are not ironed out then apply for mutual consent divorce and part your ways.

2. Apply for anticipatory bail if she lodges a FIR for the offence of dowry i.e 498A.

There is nothing to be worried about it.

Next time when she is not returning from her mother's house and prolongs her stay inordinately, you just dont ask her to come back neither you go to her mother's place to pick her up. Instead you can issue a legal notice to her stating that she is staying at her mother's house abandoning her matrimonial house without any valid reason, hence she should return within a week from the date of receipt of this notice.

This will make her to think about her behavior, she may return or indulge in filthy criminal cases with false contents, which will indicate her character after which you can decide about continuing the marital relationship or not.
