Hi Tina.
I’m separated and understand your dilemma.The thing is, two people have to want to be in a marriage and be willing to work
through the difficult issues together.
From what I read, your husband is not meeting you half way at all.
You on the other hand, are working hard, to move forward. You have left the Titanic my dear, but he is still on it!.
Painful and all as it is,best to cut your losses and leave him. I don’t believe you can ‘fix’ or ‘save’ your marriage.
Don’t waste anymore time. To me he is using his ‘family issues’ as an excuse to force you into making the decision to
leave. A decision he does not have the ‘balls’ to make. Pardon my language.
I gave my x 25 years, my best years. He’s still not happy, for all his extra marital philandering.
I know now it was not my role to make him happy.
You can begin to focus on making a whole new life for yourself and who knows, who might be waiting to be in your life
to appreciate all the wonderful gifts you have to bring to a true relationship.
Sincerely.
