How could any real man with a nanogram of self-respect look forward to a glorious future with such a woman?
Most don't if it gets to the stage your describing. I certainly tried with mine for a very long time, but in the end, I came to the same realization that you are now having. I regret my M didn't work out, but I don't regret taking the action I did to leave it.
I felt my sanity slipping away the more I cohabited with her. I think looking back, I stayed a little longer than I should have for my Son's sake, but it only became more hopeless and depressing for me.
An older Woman once told me she thinks Men have less tolerance for pain in a relationship, so they are more likely to leave a broken one if they can't reconcile it in a timely manner. I think she is spot on from reading testimonials on here.
"It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare." -Mark Twain
