I Think My Marriage Is Over



Dear Lady. Ann:

I have been married for 7 years to a decent husband and a great father. We have a 7 year old son. We found out we were pregnant during a break up. We went to counseling to get back to each other and got married a year later. My husband has been diagnosed with ADD, he procrastinates on many things (the reason for our break up). For example: his wages were garnished this year because he did not follow through on our taxes. He can be argumentative, defensive, shut down & unempathetic when I try to solve problems with him. For years I begged him to get support of any kind for his ADD and he did not. Finally, he did this Jan & we have a great therapist. Both of us are making strides & changes, but I am DONE. I’m exhausted, burned out and do not want to partner with him anymore. I want peace, quiet & stability in my own home. He wants our marriage & we are doing better as a couple. But I think I want out. If I never remarried I think I will be ok with that. Your thoughts?
