Considering divorce

In need of advice! I love my husband very much, things moved very quickly in our relationship and we married when I was young. We have 4 children together and were once very happy but recently I've found myself feeling this isn't what I want anymore. I don't want to unsettle the children but I'm not happy.
Whenever I try to talk to him he just says we will get through it but nothing changes.
I really don't know what to do, I'm not in a good financial position I work in his business, I left my job to help him. I feel stuck and don't know what to do. I love him but don't want this relationship, I'm so conflicted.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Could you start with the job change? How old are your children? Would you be expecting him to leave the family home?

Job change first is a good idea for several reasons, best case scenario it helps your relationship and worst case you've got your own money which will make seperating a lot easier.

Our children are 8,6,3,1 so we have very small children still. I wouldn't expect him to leave, I don't even know.

I think a job change is probably what's needed, I just don't want to see him struggling.

What do you envisage life like with such small children post divorce ???

You’ve said you love him twice op, I think you need to figure out what the change is that you want- there’s a good thread at the moment for pointing out divorce isn’t just that you take the kids and live the way your always did
