hi guys ...
uhm well i've been in a relationship with this guy for the past 6 years. we've been married for the last 3 of those 6 yrs but it's almost like we've already fallen out of love and all that is left is an empty marriage.
i've been in the uk for the past couple of yrs now, and i'm away from my whole family. my brothers do not speak to me because they did not approve of me getting married so young to a guy they weren't exactly fond of.
with hindsight, i realise their reasons. but i am quite attached to him and we are together out of convenience. he is extremely attached to me too.
i work full time ... i'm actually saving money for my studies. all my colleagues are way older than me and so we haven't really got many things in common. i don't drink, smoke, let alone do drugs. so it's very difficult for me to fit in with most of the people i know. my 'husband' doesn't share any of my interests (though at the beginning of our relationship, he pretended to be totally into the same things as me). we never go out. NEVER.
i've got a week off work right now ... and i spend all my time on my own. i do enjoy my own company, but i think i've reached my limit. i just feel real low now.
i want out of the relationship. but i don't know how to go about it. i'm lonely, but i don't know if i can cope completely on my own, if that makes sense. i've been with him since i was 16. i don't know if i know how to be alone. the thought of it scares me.
any kind of advice would do? or just knowing that someone understands
i'm sorry it got so long.
cheers
