[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's okay to leave a marriage, if it isn't what you want. Even after 20 years. Even after he tried hard to fix the problem. Sometimes it goes that way.  Be kind to him, but take care of yourself. You don't have to stay for him. [/quote]

Interesting - OP’s complaint is essentially that he was selfish for too long. Now she can be selfish and leave just after he has done the work etc.  I do hope her husband finds a better partner, if that is his choice post divorce [/quote]

After 20 years of begging him to do work, he finally did, only because he saw she was checked out and that would negatively impact his life.

It would be another story if he had done it early on because he saw his wife was unhappy. But if you’re selfish for the entire marriage, and then change only for selfish reasons, you can’t be surprised when your spouse finally decides to do what is best for them.

I don’t really understand why we excuse men for being selfish, but as soon as a woman is, she’s a terrible person and we root for the husband to find someone better. [/quote]

Seriously. Why do we say that after 20 years of selfishness, the woman just has to forgive immediately and bust her ass to fall back in love? [/quote]
