i have posted before about this. we have grown apart over the last 10 years, no sex or kissing in all that time at all, we have barely spoken in the last 6months except about the kids, he wasn’t working or looking for work until i insisted and now he only contributes to groceries, i pay everything else, and do all house stuff/organize the kids. he will happily get home from work now and sit and watch me do everything.
i am in my 40s so it’s not like i will ever find another partner - why does it bother me then that we are only flat mates? it’s not like i am leaving to be with a lover. it will just be more life alone.
when i write it all out it sounds like i am making a good choice in separating but i can’t help but feel i should try harder to live with it, for the sake of everyone.
happiness is stupid reason to do anything isn’t it?
i wish i were a man, they seem to have no qualms about putting themselves first, and not doing anything that is counter to their own best interests.
why is this so hard? if i were doing the right thing, wouldn’t i feel great doing it?
can anyone help?
