Lightbulb Divorce or separation...

Would you still consider a divorce or a separation after 25 years of an unhappy, one-way marriage? Please don't ask why the marriage existed for that long. I know I've been stupid enough.

Unhappy being the keyword, my answer to your question would be a resounding yes. You deserve to be happy regardless of how long the marriage lasted. That's not what is important. If you feel that there is no way to salvage it, or make things better, it is certainly time to move on. One-way relationships are bound to end up being unhappy, unsatisfying and very disappointing. We all need to be loved and understood and it doesn't seem like it's the case here. I would take a step ahead and walk away.

I would consider temporary separation and counseling. If counseling does not work, then, depending on the situation, one might consider getting a divorce.

I know a couple that has been "separated" yet still legally married for 20 years. The situation is half-solved, the wife is still responsible for the (stupid) husband's bills, yet she won't put an end to it in the form of a divorce.

Yes, I think divorce is a good option. If the marriage has carried on for that long without any happiness and feels one way, maybe you shouldn't be with that person any more. Have you talked to your spouse about it?

It's unfortunate to hear about your situation. Personally, I would like for you to give more information about what make you think of divorce and say that it's a one-way marriage. However, since you seem to be uninterested in saying them, I'll assume that you're really decided on taking action on your marriage.

Divorce is always an option for a marriage that's falling apart, but before you take this route, I suggest the both of you to go to a marriage counselor and get to the bottom of this. But if either of you relent and just want to separate and begin life anew, then you must ensure that you get the best free divorce advice for women by reading the information on this link before taking the next step towards a divorce.

I think you have done your best and put in efforts to keep the relation for a long time..and still if it dint work out.. Definitely you should move out.. 25 years you have had enough.. Atleast now go ahead with your decision of divorce., if you are damn sure it cant sustain any longer.. But make sure to talk about this to your partner at the earliest..
