OP lives in the state where teachers are finally paid decently, after covid and new leaderships. It’s affordable to support oneself, even if not lavishly. Ton of singles do.
She complained about this relationship and being unhappy many times over the years. If it was bad before marriage, it doesn’t get better after. And it didn’t.
I see you quoted me so that’s why I am commenting. I am not randomly advising divorce. Basing it on reading about of at least a few years of misery.
