  • To be honest Jinky,
    I'm not sure-I guess it's because he ticked every single other box...and at the time, that was more important. AND, (being a woman!) I though I could change him. More fool me.

    I think it's an issue now because I'm nearly 40 and I think it's called mid-life crisis...lol

    Or perhaps it's because you fell in love with what you imagined he could be...and not what he actually is????....And perhaps it;s only now that you are starting to think that perhaps he's not going to change?

    Sorry to be so blunt....

    So you're startng to objectively "process" all the information you have received over the years. That's good...but remember there is always more than one outcome to this. Ultimately, after reflection....you need to decide what is best for you.,,,and what you are prepared to accept. But please do give your self-esteem some credit (and loving!!) in all of this.

    Hugs
