Why can't I leave?

Question

I'll try to make this short. I'm married. Been together 5 years. Starting in November of 2020 I realized I was unhappy with where I'm at and I think, who I'm with. My marriage started going downhill and has been a decline since. But everytime we get to the point of saying goodbye, I just can't seem to let go. I don't understand. Am I scared to be alone? Or on my own? I've never been on my own. I'm not sure. Maybe I think I don't deserve better.

Answer

This is completely normal. It may be a combination of a few insecurities: financial wellness, emotional attachment, etc. Make a list!! Use W.O.O.P: Wish (goals or end results), Opportunities (things in your favor or pros list), Obstacles (risks or cons lists), Plan (what are the steps to use the opportunities, to combat/avoid the obstacles, and finally achieve the wish. Worst case scenario, give yourself a deadline with actual consequences. (Example: Automatic greeting cards scheduled to go out this time next year, announcing the divorce)

Answer

Maybe you’re not sure if you are making the right decision. Nobody knows but you also need to know why you want to leave him. If you leave confused you could just fall into a similar relationship. The grass is never greener on the other side it’s just different. Definitely make sure u know why this isn’t going to work out for you and picture what an ideal partner would look like.
