[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH won me over with effort. Now married for 10 years with 3 kids. Don’t think I can be in this loveless passionless dead marriage any longer. I am childcare. We talk about child logistics and that’s it. I’m so resentful. I gave up my lucrative career to stay home. DH takes me for granted. I seriously cannot stand my husband and feel totally stuck. Yesterday I told him I want out and [b]he just brushed me off and said he was the best I could do.[/b]

I want to run away and restart. Then I look at my children’s sweet faces and can’t leave.[/quote]

He actually said that he was the best you could do? Wow. I'd see that as a challenge.

Work on yourself, OP. Shape up. Plan your exit. Get some childcare for the kids and either go back to your career (full time or part time) or start a business or side job. Get yourself in control of your finances. Look after yourself. Get your power back.[/quote]

+1. Many men don't respect their wives once they become SAHMs and stop putting in effort because SAHMs often ARE stuck. My own marriage improved once I got back in shape, got a job, and became a self-supporting adult because DH knew I had options and other men were taking an interest in me.

So much this.[/quote]

Right, WOHMs get divorced less and little kids love being in daycare  :roll: [/quote]
Who cares if WOHMs get divorced more or less?  That's not the point, OP says that she, a SAHM, is considering divorce and is extremely unhappy. What is the harm in leaving the home and trying something different? What is the benefit to her children for her to be caring for them while sad and depressed?[/quote]
