I build up the courage to tell him to go and then chicken out

Question - (25 January 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 25 January 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, *otycie writes:

I have been married for 7 months and with him for 6 years. I have a 12 year old daughter from a previous relationship .

My husband and I have had various problems like most couples and my daughter and him do not get on, I know she would prefer it if he left and sometimes I would , but when I build up the courage to tell him to go I always chicken out. I dont know if this is because I love him or I feel sorry for him.

At the moment he is not here but I am starting to feel bad, should I stick to my guns?

LOL! We can always count on pvtguy to tell it exactly how he sees it!! And I have to agree with him...Six years together and then after only 7 months you want to throw in the towel???? You must have known in the previous six years how your daughter felt. Why all of a sudden, her opinion counts? Or maybe it is that you realize now that you made a mistake and you are using your daughter as a scapegoat?

Try to do some soul-searching and figure out what's really going on with you. It boggles my mind that people can be with a person for so long and they marry and it's over in a matter of months! What's really going on?

Another point I would like to make is that adolecents can be very manipulating. Step back and look at the whole picture!
