As some here already know, I’m one of those In a bad marriage with a spouse whose addicted to Internet. He denies there’s a problem and refuses to get help. We had seval marriage counselors try to help, my spouse rejected all their advice as soon as it didn’t suit him. He made promises only to break them. I’m trying to stay focused on my kids who love their father so much and doing lots of Davening, while getting therapy for myself. I seriously don’t know whether to divorce or not. One one hand I dream about having a 2nd chance at marriage with someone new and hopefully more “normal,” but theres no guarantees. The thought of being alone terrifies me. The thought of my children being c” v hurt by a divorce tortures me. Do I sacrifice my own happiness for the sake of my kids and wait until they’re older before I think of myself? Will it then be too late for me start over? It’s a heart-wrenching decision, not an easy one at all. I believe my spouse won’t get real help unless the kids and I leave him.
