Why would I continue to try and love someone that keeps spewing out how they do not love me. I respect myself enough to feel like I will not put up with it forever. Meaning I will try for several more years, as long as he remains in the house. But eventually you realize that you are fighting for a person not worth fighting for. That it's not even worth it. I mean after a while you think- exactly what are they bringing to the table that makes them so great.

I wonder if many people here work so hard at it for the kid's sake. I mean that's my top priority. I wonder if kids were not in the picture if people would not DB at all or DB for a shorter time only and then give up.


There's a lot of truth to this. The first time around I went through this for two yrs mostly for my daughter's sake. Don't regret it because I walked away knowing I did what I could to keep her family together. This time is different. While I'm not ready to throw in the towel just yet, I will not sit around for 6 months or a year pining away for someone who doesn't want me. I've got too much to offer someone else.
