Wow, do you really think that? Here I am, suffering for years with my husband and his OCD/OCPD, control issues, erratic behavior, sexual issues, etc...and I have put up with it because I made those vows. Of course, at the time we got married, 14 years ago, I had no idea things were going to be like this.
And I don't think it's easy at all to call it quits. I usually feel two things when it comes to my husband - either disgusted or numb - but I have stayed in this unhealthy marriage for the sake of our daughter who wants nothing more in life than to have her parents love each other and stay married.
I am a stepmom, and I don't want my daughter to endure what a stepfamily situation faces.
I also know this is not a healthy family situation either.
I am struggling terribly with this, trying to deal with the struggles that this marriage holds - while protecting the health of my daughter - and it is one of the main reasons I am now reaching out to a therapist.
I don't think divorce is easy AT ALL....
