Don't know all your sitch. But have experienced getting advice from some, to leave the M. Not ready to. Can we really regret NOT leaving, even if all goes south, and we lose out, will we regret hanging in there so long? What is too long? Guess we all have to soul search for that.
Whatever it is, remember that each of us has to find the line between pride and self respect. Wherever that line is, is something to model for your children. They will watch what you do, how you overcome adversity, etc. The doormat issue is real for me. But for now, I hope and believe I am modelling committment and forgiveness. IF things get to the point where I can't go on, I will not stay M because I am too afraid to be D or alone. FWIW--hang in there as long as it feels authentic, and you don't think you'll regret it later. I also remind myself that my days on this earth are numbered and finite and I only get one life. I don't want to waste too much of it on a man who never gets it, suffering with this broken heart, Not "living" but hanging in Limbo too long. Yep, I know, I will work more on GAL. Cheers to that! jeannine
