Broken Tree, if I may butt in.....

You may be at that point we all reach sooner or later. I have followed your thread some and I know you are very frustrated as we all are.

You do deserve to be happy.

You do deserve to be loved.

You do deserve to have a wonderful life.

The point you may be at is where you have to decide what you want. If you decide you want to save your marraige then there is something you must do. You must commit to that goal no matter what happens, no matter how discouraged you become, no matter how hopeless things look, no matter how tired you are, no matter what anyone says (example; "there's life after divorce").

Only you can make this decision. If you decide to fight for your marraige you will have to ignore how you might feel at any given moment and whatever anyone might say or do.

In answer to your question is it natural to feel like you want to give up. Have you ever run a marathon? Didn't you feel like you wanted to give up? Have you ever done anything that was worthwhile? Didn't you feel like you wanted to give up at some point?

You are facing a marathon, not a sprint and this may be the most difficult and the most worthwhile thing you have ever done (I don't know you) and it is totally normal therefore that you will feel like you want to give up.

What do you want, Broken Tree?
