[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are your options?

I’m in a fine marriage. I love my husband and adore him. But he’s also so childish, immature and annoying. I do not feel deep respect or admire him. He never gets me or understands me on a fundamental level. But we have a good partnership and a life better than most.

I get sick in my stomach when I see couples who are deeply in love and have that connection.

You can feel it in their presence!

Honestly? I know it's hard but I lean towards saying yes. I know it's a cliche to say this, but you only get one life, that we know of. ONE. It's easy to forget that because human nature makes you put it out of mind and we take it for granted that we're all going to live til 80 or 90 but the sad fact is, millions of people die young every day.  Do you want to waste the best years of your life on someone who doesn't make you happy? I truly respect, admire, trust, and love my husband. We've been married for 20 years now and when we first started dating, I remember literally jumping into the air for joy on my way out of his apartment the first time I stayed over. I was that giddy and in love. Those kind of butterflies have mostly gone away but I treasure those memories. And what is left is bone deep trust, commitment, comfort, and security. And believe me, I'm nothing special. I just found the "lid" to my "pot" so to speak. That guy (or that woman) is out there for you. You just have to look. I really believe everyone has someone out there that they click with and fit together like puzzle pieces.[/quote]
