I'm very much in favor of divorce in special cases, especially where the life and general wellbeing of a spouse is endangered a result of abuse, but only as a last resort. grinning:
So what if I am just so damn miserable & I have put in every effort I can to make it work but we are no longer happy with each other. Should I stick it out & waste my years making a marriage work just to save face.

Believe it or not, people change & fall out of love. With or without spousal abuse or cheating, I refuse to stay in a marriage that makes me miserable. I have one life to live & I am going to live it to the fullest!
