I think that leaving a bad marriage/relationship is a good thing. I have actually never met a non-divorced therapist. All 4 of the ones I have seen for more than a one time visit were divorced. Two were remarried, one was on her 4-5th serious relationship and living with someone, and the other one was divorced but not remarried and had only gotten married to have children - which she said her ex-husband knew when they got married. Plus not being married does not mean being lonely or unhappy or abandoned. The first one I see now has said she does not believe people should be/need to be married to one person for life. It may be the one thing we have ever agreed on.
