I’ve been struggling with my relationship for awhile. I can’t possibly go into details right now but I’m not happy and I don’t know how to let it go.

Hi friend.. care to share about what’s happening? Or when you’re ready if you’d like but if you’re not happy what do you think you could do to feel happy?

Yeah absolutely just message me

Hey there,

I'm really sorry to hear about your relationship issues. I won't bother to ask about details because you're not ready it seems to discuss, but you need to remember if you aren't happy in it, there's no use being in it. All relationships have their ups and downs, but if things have been down for awhile, if there is abuse, or other issues, you should definitely seek counseling and a way out of this.

Do you have friends or family you can confide in and help you detach from this relationship? I'm not sure if you're married or in a boyfriend/girlfriend type, but there are resources to help if you're talking divorce. You aren't alone with all of this and I think when or if you're ready to talk about it, a little more help can be applied....for now support will be great.

Just know that, while it might seem scary, sad, and awful to leave, the long term will be better for you to get back to being happy. A good relationship is a supplement to who we are, I think. If you aren't happy in it, it's like a toxin....we become depressed and less of ourselves. You deserve to be loved, happy, and in a situation that is comfortable for you.

For now, please be kind to yourself while you go through the emotions you're feeling, know that you always have support here, and know that how bad you might be feeling isn't set for eternity. You have every right to be happy and if you ever need further support, there are so many fantastic people on here in similar yet unique situations like yours or who have been. Please take care in the mean time :)

I'm in a very similar situation. It's definitely not easy, but you're not alone. I hope whatever you decide to do, you find peace with it and can find a way to be happy again.

It depends what kind of struggles, honestly. I’ve been married 12 years. I’m content but I feel as I’m not loved, just there.
