A lot of people, from what I've seen, would automatically divorce because of a cheating spouse. Understandable, but what other things would you "call quits" for?

    I have... for me it was lack of love lack of emotional support lack of phyical contact... we ended up being house mates... not husband and wife... after a year (4 in total) of trying to change it, being uphappy, we agreed to call it quits.
    He knew exactly what I needed as I would sit in front of him explaining, but nothing ever changed. It was the hardest emotional thing I have ever had to do.
    He was a good provider, never nasty , I just couldnt do it for another 4 years, let a lone 30 years...

    But theres a good ending he is free to find someone that he cant keep his hands off... and me, I already found someone who loves to touch me, who I never have to ask if I look good or if he loves me.. I never have to ask to be held.... for me this is love..


    So for me thats why I divorced. .. I all I could to make it better, but in the end I had to leave.

    Not being happy would do it, I'd rather be alone for life than miserable. I'm not for divorce at all but if I had to choose between letting go of my 20 years of marriage being unhappy over 40 more years of happiness elsewhere I'd go elsewhere.

    - abuse in any form towards me, our potential children or animals
    - alcoholism, drug abuse or gambling addiction that was seriously deteriorating our family (and I'm talking about after getting help and the relapses keep happening)


    i think thats about it

    It wasn't the cheating that did it for me. It was the fact that she couldn't stay away from him when we were supposedly working it out.

    What about selfishness, addiction to videos games and lack of emotion or communication? One who will have his mother watch his one year old daughter so he can play his video game first thing when he gets home till he falls asleep.. doesn't pick up after himself. Takes his wife for granted working a full time job, coming home to be mommy and house wife at the same time? One who can't buy a simple card for his wife on her birth day when the month before his wife bought him a 800$ tool he isn't using because of a video game. One who snaps at his wife for tryin to go to bed for work in the am, asking to get off the game. So his wife sleeps in another room. One who say he knows he has things to work on but does nothing? One who is 30 years old and has do much potential but choses to throw it away? Or a spouse that has had good conversations with you on positive Change who doesn't even bother to nag anymore?

    I'm just curious... would this be a cause or am I the selfish one?

    beating or cheating. it's simple and it rhymes. it should be taught in kindergarten...because by the time ppl reach the age of dating hormones have gotten all over the place and teaching is no longer valid.

    If thats you... id talk to him about it.. everything you said here... if he doesnt change... then thats your choice. Good luck. And no your not selfish. He sounds like a spoilt brat. Marriage is a partnership. He needs to lift his game... or he will be alone with is games.
