I think about leaving my wife every day. I know she expects that I will eventually leave and has even said as much. However, I cannot continue to be with someone and be unhappy every day, as has been the case now for 5 years. She’s not a bad person, but our life is nowhere near where it was going to be when we made plans. And now she is doing more and more things that I cannot support or agree with. It saddens me in many ways to think of being without her, but I cannot live out my life in a way that goes against my values and that is not leading to any of my goals being met.
