I have been with my husband for 29 years and married for 17 of those. Like all couples, we have had ups and downs during this period. If you asked people around us, they would say we are a good example of a happily married couple. However, over the last couple of years, we have gone through a few changes, which have allowed me to reflect on our marriage. I think for a long time, I have been working hard to present a picture of happiness and I don't want to do it any longer.
My husband works hard but does nothing around the house unless he has to. He can snap and snarl quite often but is unpredictable when this will happen (never Violent). He thinks everyone is of the same opinion as him (even though his opinion comes from the 1980s) and thinks I'm being awkward if my view is different to his. I make all the decisions and instigate any improvements around the house.
He will seem a good option to people who have struggled in a relationship.
During covid, like everyone, I had time to think and I realised he is never going to change and I'm not sure I want to carry on with someone who never takes any responsibility or action for themself. I have come fixated on the idea of separating for a while to give myself time to just look after myself for once. I wonder if anyone else has ever taken time out from their relationship and how it worked out for them?
