Stuck in marriage
Posted by an anonymous user on 11/24/2007 11:36:00 AM
I have a wonderful husband. He is a great Father, supportive of my career and education, all one could ask for. Regardless, I'm not in love with him. My husband and I don't fight at all. We get along great. He has no idea anything is wrong with our marriage.
I travel a lot and have resorted to out of town one night stands. This hasn't helped the situation at all. I recently spent the night with a man on a trip out of state. Unlike the others, I have not been able to let this one go. We email and talk regularly. I know there is a slim likelyhood of us ever being together. I don't know if I like him, or just the idea of being free to persue someone like him. I have no reason to leave my husband. He is a very good man. My son has had behavior problems and has only recently began to overcome them. A divorce would not be positive for him at this point. Do I make myself happy and set myself free? Or do I stay for the good of the family?

Dont listen to all these people that say stay. The truth is, they arent happy in their marriages either and they just dont want to admit it. Dont stay out of obligation or guilt. Look deep inside and do what is right for you. In the end, all you have is yourself.
Good luck.

Love goes from being "in love" to a deeper meaningful mature love in any real longterm relationship. It may be time to grow up and be a mature mother/wife instead of trying to be an "in love" kid. Real love is a choice, not just a feeling.

I think too that you have to stay with your husband. It's just the animal instinct in you that attracts you to other men. I think most of us feel the same, but we just have to keep it to ourselves. It is very nice to know that we still can call some other man's attention..isn't it. :D
If you would lose your husband, after a little while you would miss him very much....or if he is the one to break up with you, you might not like that.
Good luck!!!!

I know what u feel I'm in the same situation. You have to happy being with some you dont love can be deppressing and if you child is older in high school they need to under stand that they will always have a mom who loves them and a dad who loves them that will not change. In my case I have 4 and a 5 yr.old so if your child is lil I understand you problem thinking of the kids is hard!! so I really cant tell you what you should do but I hope everything works out for you and your child.
