That IS what lawyers and therapists say... so do family members... friends... members of the clergy... you name it...
"You don't deserve this" "Go find your own happiness" "These things never work out" "I told you he was a no good, good for nothing $#%*"
They could be right...
They could be wrong...
It's up to you to take their advice... or take your time and come to your own decision as you think things through and weigh the pros and cons...
Because the only people who have a right to have any say, decision, or choice in the survival or demise of the M are the two who are M.
It's called "standing"... and some stand long enough to save their M... some stand for the rest of the life and never R... and some... make a choice to stop standing once they are ready to let it end...
That's just a long and wordy way of saying, do what is right... FOR YOU...
And just an FYI... some WAS actually disappear and are not heard from by their LBS for months at a time... it could be worse... and it MIGHT get worse... but it does get better...
