I just feel so sad today. I don't see any possibility of my marriage working or either one of us being happy. I just don't want to let it go. I really just feel sad.

Have you tried family counseling. There may still be hope with it if you both are willing to give it a try and be open to what happens in therapy. Good luck and things can get better.

I want to do try counseling but I he's not into it. I have thought about asking him because it's our only chance but I am afraid he will say no and then I will know what I have to do. Putting off the inevitable I guess. We both want it to work but have different thoughts about how to do it.

Maybe you can find a common ground to work things out on. You might be able to find a way he is open to like sitting down with a list of problems and working on them one by one. I used to try that when I was in a relationship, that is. Or you may find another way you both agree on.

there are many ways to connect with each other...be creative. hopefully you both keep your hearts open to one another. if you can't go to counseling together, maybe you both could read up on resolving marriage conflicts. also there's ways to get away from it all and visit nature somewhere as a 2nd honeymoon. (i don't have a clue what i'm really saying because i've never been married) anyways...if i was a counselor, i think Murray Bowen's theories are a good start.... click here---> 8 concepts

Thanks Jsc, I'll check that out.
I have to say after reading your posts today I find you to be quite smart. I am impressed and I keep thinking that as I am going thru all the posts today.

Not looking for anything in particular except the meaning of life and how to wear white without getting it dirty right away. I just think you sound smart. I don't know about you but I can't imagine being any more confused than I am right now!!

Hey use ZOUT if you have problems with stains on your whites....

meaning of life...i think understanding 3 of the 4 noble truths (from buddhism) help understand the meaning of life:

(1) Suffering exists

(2) Suffering arises from attachment to desires

(3) Suffering ceases when attachment to desire ceases

i am able to confuse you more...but don't want to (((HUGS)))

Smart AND funny!! Thanks for the smile. I don't think they have Zout here in Norway but it's good to know. I just stopped buying anything white I wanted to wear more than once.
