Single (help?)

[Life_and_Death]

Ok so its a vent mostly with a touch of 'advice probably wont kill' (depending on the "advice" but what im speaking of really isnt advice and something im seriously done "listening" to)

Ive been thinking about talking to my husband about getting a 'divorce'. Kind of, sort of. (Honestly just getting this far in the post is making me feel sick, could be hunger agitating it too, i havent eaten yet. But theres definitely a feeling of 'oh dear god').

I still want to be with him. I still want to show him my home. And all that stuff. But for me on a personal level, im better of single. I have enough emotion problems without adding extra humans to the situation. It would irradicate the "youre my husband so i have to" feeling. Plus it would irradicate the feeling that i cant leave. These are not healthy things for me to be dealing with.

We cant even have a damn conversation about tape without him misunderstanding. I should just break up with him. Sometimes easier isnt the wrong answer.
Also theres "theres no point in breaking up over 'one major problem'" speaking of my friend, which his answer was straight up no and im letting you talk to him. IM MY OWN FUCKING HUMAN NOT YOUR FUCKING SLAVE. Also that '1 major problem' really ISNT your call to make. Im the one with the problems and its nice to know you can undermine the rest of them like that.because yeah, i just love being unwantedly touch. Theres just sooo many fucking problems
oh and i have to "watch my wording" because we dont want people thinking the wrong thing, well that wording i have to not say is how i fucking feel. Im getting so sick of all this bullshit hes lucky i havent just had my grandfather pick me and the cats up and leave
Also STOP MAKING YOUR FUCKING PROBLEMS OUT TO BE MINE. OVER HALF THE SHIT I SAY I SAY BECAUSE I FEEL I HAVE TO. THIS IS NOT HEALTHY FOR ME IN ANY FUCKING WAY AND YOURE THE PROBLEM!!!! What happened to your original promise? Your promise to break up with me if youre not helping. Well guess what YOURE NOT HELPING!!!!!

The thing is he does help. He got me that cactus. He got me my girls (cats). He helps with the dishes. He picks up after himself so i dont have extra to do. He helps on the days im down. Hes helping me with shaving today because of my hallucinations last year. Hes good......i just dont know......everything mentioned in the above post is just too much.

He gets me ice cream cake for my bday because my parents were d***s. He got me giant sparklers. He got me a childrens book and 2 teddy bears to go with it (that yes i sometimes get him to read to me). Hes always doing stuff to bring me back to my 'good years'.

I think you should try to tell him exactly what you said here, but without the anger. You gave him a note that time, maybe try another one. Something like "I appreciate you and I'd like this relationship to work. But sometimes you do some things that push me away and make me think I'd be better off alone...", then describe how you feel when he keeps touching you or tries to put you on a leash right when you feel that you need some release. Maybe some more of the good stuff.

hes going to want to fix it. and its just.....not that. i feel that i should clarify, when i said

YOURE THE PROBLEM

i meant it, but not directly. just him because hes the one there. im really thinking that im better off with close friendships instead of relationships. but i dont even think i should tell him that. which brings us to...

feeling that i cant leave.

the last time i suggested something like this he was all "what if you change your mind" and saying that he wouldnt get back with me. and at this point i really dont care. but like i said in the nice post, hes not all bad which is putting me in a difficult situation especially with bpd (extreme emotions)

edit: also thank you, i was hoping youd read it and respond. youve been helping me a bit, but in comparison a lot, if that makes sense lol

What's the worst that could happen if you told him that? Where do you think keeping it bottled inside is taking you? If you compare the answers, it will be easier to decide whether you should tell him or not.

I can only imagine how difficult it is. But I think if you really need this time off and you don't take it, you'd both be wasting a huge opportunity. It can't be healthy to spend the next 50 years wondering about the "what if". On the other hand, I'm not so sure you'd feel like you needed it if only he didn't upset you so often... maybe I'm just falling for the sunk cost fallacy.

Oh, I try (sometimes). Thanks for telling me that!

no, yeah, i agree with you but after everything he's said and done in the past it's really hard to bring to voice or paper. i dont think he'll understand. he'll want to "fix it" "give things a bit of time". ive been feeling horrible for years, no.

its the same conversation again and again, i really dont want to do it again...i have a therapist appointment coming up on the 14th, i cant even recall what its for but i think its to talk about the note(??). maybe that would be the time to bring it up and have a note for myself, kind of like q-cards for a presentation but instead for me so i know how i feel not stressed about the moment (telling him).

Sounds like a plan. I have this thing where I spend the whole week planning my appointment, then it just completely derails when the time comes. I might steal your idea...

Best of luck to you!

Probably an opinion that most wobt agree but you need to file divorce if you are hanging out with men other then your husband. I understand you and your husband are not getting along but to be so admit about hanging out with another man alone who is not your husband is not okay.

I am not trying to be a downer. A lot of people here have a lot of hurt from stuff like this.

Stuff like this?

 

[Tiredofhurting]

Stuff like this?

Stuff like you are doing. Your not single you are a married women. Those actions push people to sites like this. Maybe he does not understand maybe he is complacent. Honor your vows or leave him it is simple.

So i get to suffer quietly because im different. Got it. Because apparently wanting and almost attempting to the point that i had the rope around my neck and the only thing that stopped me was that my husband messaged, isnt good enough. Im starting to think i should just off myself, holy fuck. Mind your own buisness if you have nothing good to say. Im seriously DONE HEARING IT!!! ITS EVERY FUCKING POST AND IM TIRED OF BEING HARASSED BY PEOPLE THAT DONT UNDERSTAND.
Edit: btw youre on ignore so dont bother responding.

 

[Symbiote]

People need to stop playing moral police. So you don't agree about married women hanging out with other men? Ok fine, that's your opinion, but umm, we're in the 21st century and it's okay for women to hang out with other men, and vice-versa. Marriage isn't the traditional Boomer shit of the 50s anymore.

Haha, it's called trust in your relationship and being secure.

While im sure youre joking, at least i think you are in a way lol, ive been there done that and it left me crying in class. I really dont want to do the whole control bs again

Then why get married? To have a shiny ring.....

 

[LastLoveLetter]

Having platonic relations with a member of the opposite sex is very different to infidelity. Marriage does not mean never speaking to or befriending another member of the opposite sex ever again. Demanding that is not love or commitment - it's control.

Im NOT your ex, and not all situations are exactly the same. Stop treating me like everyone else
