Some Marriages Must End

My marriage ended and we are all thriving.

Divorce is tough. But sometimes staying married is not the right thing either.

I have been through a divorce and would not want to go through it again.

When disrespect, destructive behavior, addictions, emotional disconnection, criminal or disreputable behavior, explosive anger or psychological or physical abuse is consistently present – both partners must enlist the help of a licensed therapist. ASAP. If only one of you will accept that outside help is needed to keep you and your family safe, commit to it. These patterns of behavior do not improve with time. Unfortunately, they often deteriorate.

I spent several years waiting for a change, my two little girls by my side, until I realized

Even an abuser is abused if his abuse is allowed to continue…

Sometimes what we thought was deep abiding love, was not; sometimes false praise is a way to escape personal accountability; sometimes expectations of married life and the real day to day is impossible to reconcile; sometimes we really did believe marriage would change her or him. It is okay to throw in the towel, to walk away without so much as a word or explanation. Trust me, they will know why you left. Some people are just not meant to be married. And many more are not meant to be parents.

You will be fine.
