I'm quite sad but it's been a long time coming.
We've been together for 13 years, married for 8.
Had DD 15 months ago and he's just never taken to being a dad. We had a Frank chat tonight and he said he feels my world revolves around her and I have no time for him. I think he's quite childish and needed me constantly stroking his ego and now I don't do that so much.
I think he's quite jealous of DD and that's been coming out in dismissive and uninterested attitude towards her, but that's sometimes veered towards being aggressive. When I pull him up on this he gets very angry with me.
The bottom line is we don't bring joy to each others lives anymore. I suggested either trial separation or counselling but he doesn't want either. He just wants to make a clean break.
I adore DD and wouldn't be without her but I can't help wishing we'd done this a couple of years ago before we dragged her into it.
