Too short to spend it alone, either...?

If you can't be happy and content with yourself you won't be with someone else. First you must love yourself. I am perfectly content being single.

General question. What would be enough for you to make the decision to split with your spouse or partner ? I'm not talking about girlfriends and boyfriends here in relatively short relationships less that a year or more. I'm talking about married couples or long term partners, maybe with children.
So what would be enough to push you over the edge and say fuck this ?

A very difficult question.
I have been married for over 24 years, two children, one in university while the other studying for his GCSE's.
I have grown to love and care for my wife and family more than I could ever imagined.
The only reason for me to split with my wife is when she finds out about my extra ciricular activities.
Would I blame her for hating me for the way I treated and neglected her and my family? No.
Why may you ask why I visit escorts? It's purly because I've reached that age.
Call it a mid-life crises if you wish, it's just my time for the years of caring and working for my family.

The longer you are married to someone, the harder it is to leave them. It's fact!

If the occasion did arise that I had to leave my wife, I would never regret the wonderful time we had together,
but be thankful that a lady such as she was kind enough to spend her precious time with me.

No matter what we say, men are the true bastards in this world!

Twit. The OP will kick ass if we stray off topic. Get thee to the soap section, Baldrick.

Come On, most people are boring mental cases anyway.....tis a bloody miracle anyone should ever stay together........and those emotionally and mentally mature enough to be able to actually have a real and intellectual relationship are in turn desired by all the mental cases of this world in their desire to have their genes and parasitise themselves on them.........and then theres this kind of self hypnosis that folks in misery perform on themselves so as to convince themselves that they are actually in a 'normal' relationship and that all their life and dreams have not been cast into an abyss by mindless lust and desire and fear of being alone and some crazy notions of poetic romance.......





.......now, wheres me bloody shovel......i must finish digging that bloody hole......

Being part of an unhappy duo is far far worse than being alone. Imo.

Agree, it's a cliche i know, but lifes to short to be unhappy. Having been in a long term relationship, the apprehension about how you would cope being single again is a big step. Really enjoy being single again (divorcing Lucy was the best thing i ever did !)
