[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH refuses counseling so that's not really an option. I've gone to see someone myself - I think I was sort of hoping they would push me to a decision but of course they did not. Some days I feel like I am ready to call a lawyer. But then the next day, I think that's crazy.

There are no tangible issues - no cheating, no abuse, no money issues, etc. Also, we don't have kids. I don't really want to get into the details but in my mind it IS a "fixable" issue - BUT at what point do I say to myself this is not getting fixed and I need to cut ties? How long do you wait around because it COULD get better? FWIW, we talk about this a lot and I feel like this is where we both are... we have hope that we can get things back on track, we just aren't there yet. And in the meantime, it's hard and painful and it hurts.

So I'm not looking for advice on our issue, but where is the line? How much time and effort did you give it before you threw in the towel? Is it enough for me to say that it'll never be resolved if we don't go to counseling? I just wish I could be sure. [/quote]
Draw a time line...6 months?...then consider actions/activities within that time frame that you believe might help you. If you reach that 6 month mark and feel like it's a done deal to move on, or you see something that suggests more time, then you will have your answer.[/quote]
