[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsmith123]It's totally normal to grieve an outcome that never materialized.

But if you get stuck in that grief, and it embitters you, consider seeing someone.  [/quote]

+1.

OP, your feelings are completely understandable. However, as we all know, how you feel about things changes nothing about the reality of them. It's more productive to enjoy what you have and to take steps to address what you aren't happy with.

Have you tried talking to your husband about how you feel? Could you talk to your doctor about whether you might be able to have another child? Have you considered adoption? Is there another career that you can pursue?

Good luck! [/quote]

OP here. Thanks for this (and to everyone else who responded).

We’ve done therapy for years and nothing helps. He’s just not into me and therapy won’t fix that.

I can physically have children, but I’m not going to bring any more into this marriage. It wouldn’t be fair to the child. And I don’t think divorcing so I could have more kids is fair to my DC. [/quote]

Is it fair to your child to be seeing this model of how marriages work?

Divorce is traumatic, but your house sounds very sad and empty. Don 't assume the path you are on is better for a child.[/quote]
