Right at the holidays???

Mallory

Long story short, i have realized that im not in love with my husband anymore. I am absolutely gutted over this but i realized that i married him for the wrong reasons and that hes too different from me along with a lot of other things. We have been married for three years and im really upset that we will have to divorce. I know me leaving is going to break him inside and i feel so horrible. I love him like a friend, just not a husband. I dont want to hurt him at all and i know this will make his world come crashing down. I do not know when i should do it. I feel horrible that i figured this out around the holidays. I dont want to leave now and him be at home by himself during the holidays wallowing in self pity and heartbreak. I know his parents will be there for him and have him for thanksgiving and christmas etc.. but im sure all his family will be “where is she? What happened?” And thatll make him feel worse. I feel like breaking up with him before/during the holidays will hurt him more. Should i wait until after christmas? I know ill have to fake feelings and emotions but then at least he isnt heartbroke when youre supposed to be with people you love. What should i do? Wait and play along til the new year? Or do it now and hope he will be ok? Thank you!
