so you have to make another step i think

its not fair on any of you, including ds

Thats the worst part isnt it - they can be nice blokes, or we wouldnt have stayed with them so long in the first place.

But people change, and we dont all grow old together I suppose.

I just got to the point where I didnt want it to continue, because I knew it would not change.

P's behaviour was never that bad, but his moods could be frequent - more like chinese water torture, the constant drip drip and erosion of my confidence.

It sounds like your H is doing something very similar to you. they would both deny it vehemently if you accused them to their faces no doubt.

Do you feel better when he is not around? When I realised that applied to me, I knew something had to be done.

I wouldnt call you weak - if I was brutally honest, Ive just come to the end of a two year relationship that went on 19 years too long! Thats hardly decisive, is it?

Also, I like to think that its a sense of loyalty that keeps us wanting to work at a relationship.

Fear of being alone is awful. But you wont be really - youll have DS, and you sound like you have a lot of friends close by, and your sister.

lou33 · 05/09/2007 20:45

if you read that same post by someone else what would you say to them?
