I hear you.

I got out of an unhealthy relationship about a couple of months ago that lasted for almost 3 years because I decided that I didn't want to spend the rest of my life with this person. It was a very good decision for me and I never regret it. Now I am in a healthy relationship and it is going very well.
I guess what I am trying to say is, life is short like you said, but it isn't too late to make changes that are best for you. It's never easy to leave a long-term relationship because there is the feeling of "I've wasted so much time with this person", but I'd like to think that we learn valuable lessons from these unhealthy relationships.
Regardless of what you decide, I hope you find happiness!
