I would like to look 20-30-40 years into the future, not simply, "will she leave me next month or the one after if things get bad again".
This is something I was thinking about the other day. Unless she turned into some serial adulterer I would not have left my W/M at all no matter what. I would have worked on whatever needed working on. It's like they are your family and you should stick together and tried ride it out.
I do wonder if thats part of my upbringing, no one in my family at all has ever left a M. In hers there is no one that is still together with their original W/H. Weird thing is the ones they are with now can be abusive so god knows why they left the original W/H.
Sorry to derail your thread slightly, that post made me want to vent.
