Is it possible to recover a marriage after separation? 4 years of marriage with multiple stressors, money, family conflict, new country, toxic work. Tried to keep oir family unit together. DH has done very well but my career and income have suffered. DH behaviours have shown cycles of really good to us and times when he is v angry, can't tolerate when DS cries, or when DS not doing as been asked to do, me interrupting his disciplining is a big thing, I'm always in fear of the anger escalating; rightly or wrongly, generally not being satisfied with my parenting. Things reached a head and we separated. I'm confused where to go next. He's behaving well obviously and seen DS since. My gut is divorce is on the cards. Hate the idea of breaking up the family unit and not having a father figure present. But equally don't want the negative impact of bad behaviours. Craving the good but awake to the bad. Is it possible to to maintain a marriage with separation and co parenting? Trying to carve the best outcome for DS. DH seems much calmer and happier separated tbh. Think he'd probably move on swiftly after divorce. Can't work out how much is situational vs he's just not a good man. Lots of unknowns about how he will be Co parenting & ideally if divorce I would not want any interaction.
