writes: I am a 29 year married female with a 3 year old son. I have been married for almost 8 years and throughout our marriage have had ups and downs. Something has been missing for a long time. I am a full time working professional and throughout my entire marriage my husband has never had a stable job. He has been unemployed for over 4 years and I have been the sole bred winner supporting our family. He refuses to find a job and think he is contributing as much as I am in our relationship. Times have definitely been tough. I can't confide in anyone I know about my marriage problems because everyone thinks things are ok. And I'm ashamed to tell them anyways because it will make me look foolish. I recently met a man who is also in a relationship and we hit it off right away. I am beginning to develop feelings for him and don't know what to do. I don't think I will ever be happy in my marriage and the main reason I'm still in it is for the sake of my son. Please help with any advice you can provide. Reply to this Question Share |

I felt like this with gf I was paying for everything and she still was not happy. She recently left because she said that we grew apart but it was she failed to grow up and be responsible. Have u spoken to ur husband and expressed how you feel remember the grass is not always greener on the other side. If u want 2 leave it might be best 2 leave and be alone for a little bit before u jump into something else that might be worst. Goodluck

I believe children could sense when parents are upset so if your in it for your son maybe you should think twice about it. I to stayed in a relationship for nine years and all for my daughter, until I realized it began to affect her, so think of your happiness as well as your son's, and obviously this guy is worthless not wanting to work. What's the point of having him around? Especially if you're not happy, might as well be on your own! Just my opinion, good luck
