I also really relate, I was naive I knew my now husband had issues long before I married him but I always hoped he would change, I accept now he won’t. I find it hard to walk away because i am clinging on to the good, knowing it’s mainly bad and putting up with the mood swings, manipulation and blame that I’m given. I know deep down I shouldn’t be here anymore but I don’t want to give up on the man I love. If you can walk away now, I urge you to seriously consider it, not because he’s a bad person but for you, please don’t think they will change because they have to want to and if eventually they do that’s great but don’t wait to find out.
