sometimes the limbo term is misleading. We are in a doorway of undesirable places so It's not as if the choice is between a working marriage or a crap divorce.
It's as AS says, one pile of poop or the other. Both choices seem untenable.
Except for one thing. The end of a m that is no longer working for you, is not going to lead you to the other side of this, and into peace. The other choice may well get you to a place of peace...and maybe more...
I saw my Godsent T the other day.
When I discussed holding onto the concept of my m, the desire to reach h, to get him to care enough about his family...(even now, I want to know he gives a damn!)
My T asked me about my friend who had a lung transplant. - Obviously my friend has new lungs.
My T asked me what my friend did "with the old lungs." I guessed that they were studied and then discarded...she asked me why my friend did not want her old lungs instead of the new ones.
ME: "because the old lungs did not work for her anymore..."
this^^ analogy helped me.
