Alone but together

I'm married, but I have never felt so alone. I have a boyfriend who is amazing. I don't know what to do. Should I leave my husband so I can be happy? He would literally die without me. That's heavy, but I'm not in love with him anymore. Why am I staying? Just to keep him alive? Who is fighting so feverishly for me? Who? What I have is a shitty roommate and not a partner. I need to get away and be with someone who won't take advantage of my kindness. I need an equal. I need something more. Something worth fighting and living for. I selfishly just want to be happy. I just want to be happy.

We all want to be happy and live in this perfect bubble.

Just be careful you don't jump from the frying pan into the fire.

Your choice. I stand behind you. Wishing you the best :) xx

honor both of them by either divorcing or letting go of the boyfriend and going all in on the marriage. Unless you’re both up for an open marriage it is cruel. Then learn how to advocate for yourself and become a friend to yourself. That opens the door to an equal relationship.
