What should we do? Keep trying to work it out and save the marriage, or divorce and save ourselves?

philipjmerrill asked:

I tend to run away from responsibility, Ive struggled with depression all my life. Knowing this, my best friend, against my pleading, fell for me and talked me into dating her and then into marrying her. I mistaked “not knowing what I want” for “I can handle anything” and we married. I told her before we even started dating I knew a few things, like I dont want kids (she does) and I dont want to live in this area (she does). Didnt faze her. She was driven to do good things back then, plus she was hot. Since we got married 5 years ago, weve degraded drastically. Im sure my depression has brought her down. Shes given up changing the world and shes gained a lot of weight. I was frugal and never had any debt before we married. Now were $30,000 in debt and we live on her parents property. Ive never done the manly thing before. What should we do? Keep trying to work

What would you have done to save your marriage?

AzNative89 asked:

There was a time I would have done or overlooked or to be honest not only agreed but I would have enjoyed the other side of the woman I was married to, but now I don’t think I would answer the phone to save the marriage. You kick a dog enough times and he leaves…
Just to answer the lket me guess group.
We were under twenty-five when married…
Made over 6 digits for income…
Shared chores most of the time…
Lasted eighteen yrs
Had two children
We went to church regularly..
We forgot to communicate but we had something that was unique….
Dog Owner??? Whats up with the prostitution thing? I never betrayed my wedding vows, she did at every turn, even posting up on web sites for sex and having sex with both of my brothers one of which is the father of her baby due on our wedding anniversery…

Is it right to have a baby just to save a marriage?

lina asked:

I’v posted a few questions about my husband and I being unable to carry a pregnancy (3 miscarriages, 1 stillbirth in 2 years) and my DR wants me to give up because it is playing havoc on my hormones in my body and she’s concerned about my mental health. I want to give up too. Adoption is still an option and we are signed up for it and on the waiting list. We still do need to raise a few thousand dollars before we can go onto the next step though, but I’m going to be 40 soon and thinking of shutting this whole thing down. Many people are saying that in order to save my marriage I should do ANYTHING to get a child, whether its surrogacy, in vitro, (woudlnt work, I can’t carry a pregnancy) or asking a family member to have one for me. I’m not sure how correct this is…if my marriage is going to fail if we don’t have children, then is it really fair to put
