Crazychef I know the feeling. Everyone is painfully sensible and if things look ok on the outside and your husband is a good guy then it makes sense in their eyes if you stay together. People around me seem to get uncomfortable when I talk about feelings, they'd just rather not know. I think it's also them possibly avoiding having to look at problems in their own relationships. One of my best friends who is in a very content yet possibly quite unsatisfying relationship is suddenly telling me how all relationships will end up like this, it's just how it goes...despite the fact that before she had her heart broken two years ago she would have been the first person telling me not to settle, to go be truly happy, to believe in true love etc. Sometimes people don't want to listen because if they do they might hear something too familiar. Sometimes people just don't like to see the boat rocked. Either way it's horrible, I know, because it makes you feel even lonelier at an already pretty lonely time. 5 years ago User reported

Horridwife I feel exactly the same way. I am struggling right now because I am supposed to try and make it work. But I know it won't. So I'm going to counseling, going through the motions, but what for? To make him feel better for a short while before I leave, which I know I'm going to do. I am tired of listening to other people - listen to yourself. You know you better than anyone else. I'm going to try and do the same. 5 years ago User reported

Jame They probably don't understand because you are still there...they think if it was really so bad, you would have already left. No one can give you permission to leave but you. If that is what you decide, then you have to do it, even if people don't understand. You are the only one who has to understand why you stay or go. But I will say...is that the only reason you are still there? Or is something else keeping you there? 5 years ago User reported
