Every person should order their lives according to what they believe God is asking them to do. Our priorities should be God's priorities insofar as we discern them to be through prayer, reading God's Word, and the teachings of the Church.
If we do this, then it doesn't matter what other people think, even our spouses. In the end we will answer to God for how we lived our lives.
Of course we should seek good and holy counsel from one or two Christians we deem more advanced in faith and holiness than us; and avail ourselves of spiritual reading. But in the end it is up to us, and us alone, to discern God's will for our lives.
