Is it safe to say you’ve tried to talk to your partner about how you’re feeling and nothing has changed?

If marriage counseling is on the table, you can message me and I can give you a great referral. She saved my husband & I’s marriage. If not, that’s okay, and I hope you come to a resolution soon 🤗

Yes I have talked to him multiple times and he tells me that he is not going to change and is like I don’t want to believe him in a way I’m just hoping he will and no he will not do marriage counseling I have tried before but thank you

If he’s not willing to change or make an effort. You have to ask yourself ‘can being on your own be worse than how miserable you feel now?’ Have you got family or friends you can lean on during the process? I won’t lie, divorce is tough even when you know it’s the right thing to do. I’d recommend writing down all the reasons why you want to leave to remind yourself in those moments of self doubt why you’re going through this tough process. I know people say that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. Well, I can tell you that I made it to the other side after a tough few years going through that process (like you no cheating we just grew apart and weren’t happy together) and let me tell you, the grass is not only greener on the other side but it smells like freedom and self worth. ☺️ You can do this!

Cheating is not the only reason for a relationship to fail!!!! It is just one thing among so much more. Marriage counselling is always the last resort and if someone refuses then nothing else left to do but move on and get that counselling for yourself while you're at it too. All the best. You are vety brave and I am sure you will make it. X
