I am not happy with him and after 10 years of marriage I am feed up of everything. I have been trying to make him happy and I am trying very hard to see myself happy. For the couple of weeks I have been having trouble sleeping and when I open my eyes, I just think of the way to get rid of my husband. I fell that I am stuck with him for ever! What should I do? Thanks!

If he's saying NO to divorce and marriage counseling, you have a man there who is either in huge denial and is simply refusing to face the problems in his own marriage. And I get the feeling he will be extremely pained when all this comes down. The only way to do this-is sit him down and calmly, maturely tell him. It will hurt him but I sense he's hurting deeply, by denying this problem. Tell him outright, but just remember, that the emotions of others need to be treated with care and respect. But...no, there is no easy way but when you do it..be honest and stay strong. Good luck dear.

If your really intent on splitting up and you think there is no way back then you have to make him listen.. Perhaps he doesnt think you are serious. Why dont you file for divorce... Im assuming that you could go for it on the grounds of irretrivable breakdown. If he has a petition for divorce in front of him, he knows you mean businees, this will either jolt him to seeing that your unhappy and he needs to act or he will lose you or he will finally accept it, that way he knows you mean it. You can of course stop divorce proceedings if you were to reconcile your differenes, but from what you write here I maybe think thats not going to happen.
Take care x
