How long have you been with this person? If your partner doesn't treat you with respect, it's really time to move. Nothing will ever change. It will just get worse and one day you will wake up years from now and wonder what happened. Time doesn't stand still for no one and remember, you will age and re-selection of a new girlfriend willl be different.

If your girlfriend disrepects you in public, walk away and I mean fast. She is not worth it. No man should be embrassed in public...No Face.

There are a lot of women out that looking for a good man.

Good Luck.

I've accepted that,but in the meantime perhaps the actual reality of me leaving might cause her to wake up a bit. If she really doesn't see what she may be doing wrong and also refuses to get help/change at all,then that's really it I guess.

Well now I don't know how much 'good' is left after all this time and strife.
At this point I just feel like getting away from people altogether.

In some ways she 'respects' me...a little...maybe. In other ways it's the flagrant disrespect she gives to the rest of the world and that's just not right.

I agree that perhaps years from now these 5 years will just be a blur to me,the best I can do is liken it to anyone who's gone through hell whether it be drugs,alcohol...whatever it is that takes away years of your life. I guess I wasn't immune then just b/c I didn't get into drugs or alcohol...life will get you in some way

As for public abuse,she doesn't really do that...although we're so far gone that we'll throw down and argue in public no matter who's around!

You're finally leaving her? 'bout time. Don't think that having you put one foot out the door is going to convince her to think about not having you around anymore so you can have an excuse to get back to the girl. Do yourself a favor, get on out the door, don't come back in and enjoy your life.

Hey Stuck, I know sometimes it's easier said than done, but if it's that bad, you will be doing both yourself and your wife a favor. You only have one life and YOU have to live it and be happy in it. Get one foot out the door and pull the other one out too. You'll be much happier once you make the break. Move forward, enjoy your life and don't look back. You know I wish you the very best and lots of happiness!

I'm not your pal.

Your not a victim. All of the the things that get in the way............you don't have. Therefore, the only thing that is required of you is your own personal happiness. Unless.................that is too much responsibility for you.

I may have done that in my younger days,but we're married adults now and it just doesn't seem like the thing to do.
One of the rules of this deal I guess is to try and work through whatever you can before calling it a day. I'm like that anyway,I'll ride things out to the bitter end but then won't look back.

I'm tired of her effing prideful attitude that always blames everyone else.
And she doesn't come to any self-realization until my second foot is ready to hit the doorstep.
She's got to drop this prideful attitude sht and start to realize,otherwise that's it. It's just it. No looking back for me and she knows it.
So what exactly is stopping you from leaving
