My marriage has been failing for many years. I married a man I thought I loved. He’s a good guy never cheated on me never raised a hand to me. Has a kind heart and very handsome. When we first met I earned a very high salary as did he. Whirlwind romance we married and fell pregnant quickly. I had a late term loss. I didn’t cope well. He didn’t support me at all. Instead he treated me rather poorly and my love begun to fade. I quit work stepped down and earned a lower salary whilst supporting him excelling in his business. Now he’s on a 6 figure salary. Whatever I want I have. But I am constantly reminded that he is the high earner.
Our marriage lost love and respect a long time ago for a number of reasons. Whatever he done to me I loved him and I stayed. When I finally walked he begged me back and after weeks I caved and returned home. Fast forward a couple of years I am 4 mo this post partum and we have 4 young children. The arguing is daily. Were misrible and have agreed to begin divorce proceedings. Today he told me he hasn’t loved me for a long time. It broke my heart. I’ve been praying for this marriage to end a long time but now he’s finally admitted he is not in love with me why does it hurt so much? Sometimes I feel weak I cry. If he catches me he’ll say things like “my god crying again? Wow” I just want to snap my fingers and be at the other end of this.
