I wonder how common this is. My mother lost her brother (he was only 20, she a couple of years older) and I recently learnt that my parents broke up almost a year mostly due to reasons that could be traced to that trauma. They got back together, now they have three grown children and are still together 30 years later. Also had a friend who broke up with his girlfriend recently after his mother died suddenly in a traffic accident and they had been together multiple years and seemed happy before that. I guess death and trauma changes you, but I hope people can try to stay through rough patches even though it is painful because there is light on the end of the tunnel.

About 30 years ago, I was morbidly unhappy because I was not married and no man (no “RIGHT” man) was showing any interest in me. I made a decision that I would stop being unhappy with my single status and surrender it to the Lord. I had come to the realization that if I was unhappy as a single woman, I would be unhappy as a married woman, because I would take the unhappiness into the marriage with me! That’s similar to what Dr. John is saying to this young woman. If she doesn’t deal with the grief, she’ll take it with her wherever she goes. I am now 60 and still unmarried, but very content with my single life!

She has a husband who is devoted to her. Men like that are rare and she should count her blessings. She's chasing a dream that doesn't exist. She's nearly 30 and seriously needs to grow up.

She loves her husband but doesn’t want to hurt him or the kids. She doesn’t want her kids to hate her. If she can go back to being single and free, she would probably like that.

Many times we think that the "grass will be greener on the other side", but in time we realize that the problem was the glass we were looking through. We need to find contentment within our lives and the blessings we have in them. Because we become desensitized to our own existence sometimes and it isn't until something terrible changes our perspective, that we realize what we had and how much we loved it. I bet if something happened to her child or her husband, her whole view of her world would change. I don't say this from a negative space, she's allowed to grieve and her feelings are valid. But a new perspective might challenge the permanency of those feelings in her life.

People get fed an unrealistic picture of what family life is like, through TV and social media we are lead to believe that everyone is happy all the time. And when the reality don’t meet that picture people get worried. Worried that the low is a permanent state or a sign of a defect that should never occur. Instead of hearing that it is a normal part of life and that life goes in waves. If you are lucky enough to have a partner willing to ride those waves with you through life there is intimacy and desire to be found again when the waves settle. Maybe this was exactly what she wanted to hear.

The problem may be with me, but it can compound with another person who is not trying to grow or change. I have a ton of problems. It’s not the other person. But I never regret leaving. I had to get myself back. Also it’s ok to take an extended break and try out a separation. Just don’t judge yourself. And there are ways to bring the life back to a marriage.

She married a guy she had no real attraction/ feelings for because it was someone to help pay the way and was safe , now she's stuck in a marriage she dispises and with that every day more and more resentment builds and she looks around and realized she's stuck in this for the next 40 -50 years

She was way too young to get married and didn’t get an opportunity to live for herself. I got married at 36 and wish I waited a few more 🤣🤣 marriage is hard work! we don’t have kids though and don’t plan to so it makes it a little easier. We love kids but just not for us. Every couple is different.
@EadsB70023 жыл бұрын
good for you! sounds like you did it the ideal way (if marriage is an option). In hindsight, i'd never recommend marriage under the age of 30, 35 even better! There's just so much necessary growth and maturity needed for marriage, that most younger people simply don't have.

Stuck in an awful relationship. Wife sucks at raising our kids and they suck too because she hasn't prepared them for life. She doesn't work so its all on me to pay bills, so I unfortunately cant raise my kids. I just have to deal with the fact that they are being raised wrong and there's nothing I can do. Why do we do this to ourselves?

I mean, even when you work, you still participate in raising your kids when you get home at night, right? Or do you have to live out of state for your job and you never see them? I'm sorry you two are not on the same page as parents, can you try couple's counseling?

I hope that she listened to him. I can't relate to her situation but I can relate to being in the daughter's shoes. If she continues there is a risk that the daughter will grow up resenting her and not wanting to be married or have kids because she associates it with being miserable. Kids are resilient but it's not just about her and her husband.

As an almost 37 year old woman who began adulthood in the exact same way, pregnant at 18 and married at 18, I'd like to say that girl needs to work on herself big time. When you begin adulthood as a mother/wife, it's what you become sometimes forever. But being a wife and mother doesn't have to be it and nothing else... Life is full of you make it that way. You are your best motivation.

If a woman isn’t attracted to her husband anymore…that’s a pretty big deal. Just because you have kids with someone, doesn’t mean you should stay for the kids. They will see you are unhappy, and not attracted to their dad. I think if she is over him, she needs to move on…find someone she can love and let go of the husband so he can be with someone who will fully love and appreciate him.

Sadly most women do think this way. Which is kinda a disappointment...shouldn't we invest more into ourselves at a young age rather than jumping into marriage and family right out of high school? Had she waited a while (and lived, dated, etc), maybe there wouldn't be the discontentment.

Your advice reminds me of a Carly Simon song, The Stuff that Dreams are Made Of. One of the lyrics is "Take a new picture". It's a great song and is written exactly about this type of situation.

@@desireepatterson5977 Attraction can't be forced. Either the husband needs to put in the work and transform himself into someone she's attracted to (I wouldn't recommend it as no one should change for someone else), for example work out and build a celebrity body, increase his social status, etc. Or, the wife should get a divorce without alimony and find someone she's actually attracted to, and let the husband be with someone who actually loves him. Yes, children do much better in a two parent household than a single parent household. But, children do much better in a single parent household than in an environment where the parents can't stand being around each other.
