So says my DM anyway
Background: DH and I have been together nearly 8 years, we have a school age DD.
The spark left some time ago, I have a lot of issues following sexual abuse as a teenager which I have largely resolved (lots and lots of therapy on my part).
I still have depression however and I have tried to leave DH several times, we are the best of friends- have a laugh, never argue, support each other through the bad times but honestly it would be like having sex with my best friend which would just be weird.
I'm in my early 30s so I feel like there is a chance I could eventually move on with my life and find another partner but my problem is my mum (and the rest of my family really) are determined that I actually still love DH and the problem really is my frequent bouts of depression which are clouding my judgement.
I feel so alone, I can't talk to my friends about this, my family don't really believe what I say about my feelings and I have no idea what to do next.
