Title: Re: New, codependent, conflicted in the silent zone where start in coping? Post by: Trublu on July 25, 2019, 07:04:10 PM Thanks for reply I’m very sad, broken today, lonely of support , in response:
what led up to this? Long cycle, arguing in marriage, cycle. I want help he refuses as I’m at break point .he lives in another country visits at his convience, leads double life. Not truthful and I'm calling out as I want change for me , us.ithink Tera been infidelity and definitely emotionally. does he know that youre considering ending the marriage? Yes, but I threatened so much on sex addiction he has and other issues through years wrongly, thinking it’d scare to help. Now, I’m there or debating and scared...he doesn’t take seriously nor care.i feel stuck, at my age in late forties and now sick, not being able to work or provide for myself. have you sought out and gotten input from friends or family on this? would you have a place to stay? I’m limited in support under care of a psych and counselor have been realizing I’m codependent and my own role. Trying to understand and wrap myself around what’s happened , why, options, learn a better way. I’m reading tools and resources here to, I’ve sadly counseled as prior profession , not fam issues, know just it’s hit home .i feel humiliated it’s my family, I didn’t see signs and allowed myself to be a door mat. Dealing with anger from illness and the treatment, as so many changes as he’s in country women not viewed well and with sex addiction issues already there.i feel like I’m not human and shown much of time. It’s heart breaking. I blame me, now wonder what’s wrong with me that I don’t leave immediately. Where to stay ...home in both names as on gift deed , contributed in payment.13 years married twice so I’m here, Hess there if we divorce I don’t know? I guess court decides as child is adult now. I’d appreciate honest feedback so I can grow, brace, and maybe see perspectives I’m not considering. |
