Husband asked for more time and I wish I wouldn’t have given it.

send booze 🍷

About 3 years into our marriage, I told my husband I wanted a divorce. I was so checked out and I was tired of being on an emotional rollercoaster. He asked me for more time to change. I agreed and I really wish I hadn’t.

We are now 6 years in and I’ve tried, I really have, but I just can’t shake that I don’t want to be with him. I never got off the emotional rollercoaster and we are only good when Im not bringing up stuff.

Even worse, he has made SOME effort and He is great in so many ways! It would be easier if he was a complete POS. It makes it harder that I know he wants us to work and that he has a good heart.

I have grown resentful over time and I don’t enjoy being around him most days. Unfortunately, we have kids so I would be a single mother. My literal worst nightmare. I see people say that it’s easier raising kids without their former husbands but I don’t know… anyway, I just wanted to share. If you want out of your marriage, get out before you get stuck. I can’t even afford to live on my own with two kids .
