So very lonely

I feel my marriage has run its course, we seem to want such different things. I am so so lonely and feel responsible for absolutely everthing for the house / our 2 DC.

I have discussed my loneliness so many times and tried to work through it. I have made the decision to seperate, the problem is i feel so guilty for breaking up the family home! I know its not fair to stay married and unhappy for this long, but i feel so sad making this decision and being responsible for making yet another decision.

My husband will not attend any sort of counselling. He seems so unhappy too but is adamant we should stay married.

What are your experiences with seperation, how long does it take for everything to become a little easier. I can fully see why people stay in the relationship and accept their unhappiness, it seems so much easier at the moment.

Just another update, he doesnt get it at all. Can't see how lonely i feel, he is here in person but not emotionally. Will watch a film / read the news. Woukd never offer to give me a break with the kids, night off cooking etc. Give me a cuddle or a kiss just to be nice / show he cares and supports us all.

How can he not understand? I suppose thats part of the problem. If he did get it, we wouldnt be in this situation. Confused
