There's a button that says New Thread, just as there is one that says Post Reply - it's not that hard to find, just click on it and the rest is pretty self-explanatory.

Lack of communication, love and trust is lost.


This I can agree with. My wife won't communicate, lost her love for me and now I don't trust her.

But knowing the marriage is over in your head and then actually feeling it are two different things. I don't know why, but I don't what this to be over. They say love changes the brain chemistry and one doesn't always act rationally. Maybe that's it. I don't know.

I wouldn't even forego therapy and everything else people do to "try and save" their marriage. The way I look at it is, if you lack feelings for your partner, you should get out asap b/c most likely you fell out of love for a reason. People don't change to suit others, they change to suit themselves.

What does it take before it is "finally" time to call it quits? What do you do when your spouse refuses to get help (marriage counceling)? What happens when your spouse spends a lot of hours at work and he/she doesn't have to? What happens when your spouse likes being married, but also wants to "act" single?
Just when is "enough is enough"????
My granny used to say...It's time when you ask, "When is it time." She also said...he's cheating when you ask, "Is he cheating." Can I piggy back this question? I don't get it. My friends say I'm all pro divorce & anti family when in reality the opposite is true. I'm pro marriage & all about family. I just don't want to be unhappily married & I'm not referring to the marriages that have problems. We all know that all relationships have problems. I'm referring to all the bull crap, the chronic gambling, cheating, lying, abuse, drug abuse type of stuff. I mean they complain from before being married year one til the time they divorce year 67 or whatever & really do you think that was ever good? But then I hear well you should stay anyway, what?! I just don't get it. I don't get once a cheater always a cheater & I don't get every man cheats or every man lies, or every man's a dog. But then I'm "one of them." NO, what I am is a single woman who happens to believe there are good men out there & guess what...some of them made mistakes. What is wrong with that? If I don't believe there are good men out there, then who am I going to marry? Oh, I know...NO BODY!

It's time to end a relationsihp when one (or both) has moved on.

When there is a compelte lack of interest in the other: no admiration whatsover, zero attention, no feelings...nothing. When someone doesn't even get angry at another person, you can tell they really don't care anymore.

IMO, when you're still fighting, there is still hope because you at least feel something. Fighting within limits of course, because an abusive relationship should conclude in divorce ASAP.

When the thought of divorce enters your mind, counseling should be considered.

When it's a matter of irreconcilable differences, then it's time to divorce.

The minute the trust is broken. Trust is integral to our relationship, and once that is gone from either side, it's time to pack it up. I do not believe in sticking together for the sake of kids, neither do I fear the world is going to end because I become a single mom.
