I posted a while ago about my husband of just one year and his complete lack of interest in me (sexual, emotional or otherwise).
We have been like ships in the night since then, refusing to discuss the elephant in the room - silly, I know. We finally had a big chat tonight where he basically admitted he was emotionally stunted for lack of a better word and couldn't change into something I need. I've been bringing up his lack of interest in me pretty much every 6 months for the 4 years see known each other and it gets better for a couple of weeks and goes back to normal. We shouldn't have married, really.
But now I keep thinking about all the people we will hurt with the divorce and I feel sad for him because an admission like that couldn't have been easy to make. A part of me wants to try and stick it out and the other part is thinking - you're not even 30 yet, thus can't be it for the rest of your life.
I'm sure other marriages are imperfect too, right? Do I owe it to us and our families/friends to give it another shot?
