I'm 41 so it's hard to think about being single again. I'm just unhappy. He is so negative all the time. Little things set him off and then he said moody. He isn't into me at all physically.
..now I've tried to tell him how I feel but he won't change. He is only about him. I also worry about him all the time like he is my child....I need to set myself free that.

Why is it hard to think about being single at 41? That doesn't make any sense.

But have you tried counseling?

I wouldn't stay. What is so awful about being single? Do you have children to think about in this? If so, if makes things a bit more complicated, if not, what is stopping you from going?

Bold part is your problem.

Treat him like a friend/Lover and not your kid then things will get better.

Are you still in love with him? Do you think that you could ever be in love with him again? Do you think counseling would help?

Then I would tell him you're thinking about divorce (men are often blindsided about these things even if they should see it coming from a mile away), see if he wants to work on it. If not, file.

Would you stay married to a man that made you miserable?

No. Life is short. I'd rather be single than married to someone who made me miserable.

You answered your own question; it does not matter what I would do.
