why do people stay in r/ships...

Children .

Children is probably the main reason that people stay in relationships that they are not happy in. Although as Dolly pointed out to me last night staying in the bad relationship can have as bad an effect on the children.
The other reason is that sense of duty.......not a good reason ........it leads to resentment!
Another reason is not wanting to be seen in a bad light and maybe becoming an outcast in your circle of friends!!
The whole seperation thing can also be hurtful to good friends that you knew as a couple ....... because you've been deceiving them as well as your partner and yourself.
Jesus I hate these too frequent feelings of shame and guilt!!!
