In Reply to: Poll: Who is unhappily married - thinkingofleaving
Married since 98 w/ 7yo DD and 4yo DS. If money was not an issue I would feel more empowered to just tell him we don't belong together, but unfortunately, until my youngest is in school fulltime (2 more school years) I am feeling very torn up. Want to just be done -"Do over". We were set up by mutual friends, and really should have never gone out past a couple of months. He is a good guy in general, no abuse, it is just that at my age -37- I now realize what I want out of life and for my children and we are not going to have it with him. And I don't mean material things. Just a normal family life. I don't want my daughter thinking our relationship, or lack of, is "normal" when she grows up. We are like glorified roomates and of course I am the Maid since I am home all day (work MT at night). I feel as though I have missed out on having a true partner in life. I would love to e-mail w/someone going through the same kind of thing..The kind of "hurry out and wait" of wanting to/planning to leave (or asking him to leave) but just that circumstances RIGHT NOW prevent it.
