Coliving
We are a couple in our forties. Been together for half our lives. Parents to young children. Me hubby breadwinner.. Her sahm. Lately and more frequently, the thought of divorce has crossed my mind. Over the past years, her faith has become stronger while I'm currently deconstructing. We talked about this and definitely don't see eye to eye. She does think we can be together and have differing views on religion. Sex is too infrequent and only initiated by me. ( I made a dead bedroom post also). She is quite moody on and off every few days. I feel she restricts me from having the fun I want ( I'm more social and love an occasional edm concert). She doesn't like me staying out overnight because I cheated early on in our relationship. Big trauma. Her: she's more of a homebody, kids' school involvement, and Bible study type. I think we're growing apart, and she'd be better off with someone with likewise religious views to help her grow and for our own individual happiness. When it's good, I'm above average happy, but when it's bad, I get these thoughts of separating. Just venting but would appreciate insight. Thanks!
Edit: Welp. Just told her how I feel. I laid it on pretty thick. She just shut down, no words. We'll see what happens now.
It's the next day now, and I asked to talk. I told her we can take a healing break for who knows how long. Laid down some ground rules and reassess down the line. She didn't say much. We'll still be co-living here. Can't move out because of finances. We'll see how this goes. 👏
