It keeps crossing my mind. Am I fighting for the right reasons?
Do I really love my W as a partner or as I would a member of my own family? Did I stay in the marriage due to this loyalty and due to DD?
The question that my sister asked me has been on my mind for the last few months. I too went through a period of depression, and possibly a mini MLC, if you can have one of those.
During this time (around 6 years ago), I didn't think that I loved my W. I thought "did I make a mistake with my life" etc etc. But because DD was only 1 and a bit years, I convinced myself that I was wrong, and that I loved my family (maybe not in love with my W, but still loved her).
Over the next 6 years, those feelings weren't as strong, and I was happy (also due to a new job that I enjoyed).
My W (only recently) accused me of picking my job over my family (untrue). I always felt like I was in my own version of "Sliding Doors".
