why does he stay?


Question Posted Sunday October 23 2005, 12:47 am

Question for guys: If you were married to a woman that you could barely stand, was mean to you and had nothing in common with, why would you stay? Oh yeah, and you had no kids together. I'm asking because I know a guy in this situation, he admitted the relationship has been dead for two years and he still stays with her.

If he's being honest, then perhaps he's just staying with her out of habit or laziness, or for financial security.

Otherwise, he may be lying to you. Are you two romantically involved, or thinking about it?

If not for religious reasons, then maybe he is afraid of being alone, or maybe he just doesn't want to go through divorce. Or it's even possible that he just has something against divorce, and doesn't want to become one of the many many people who have been divorced.

you woulndnt... its better to get out of a bad relationship in its early stages... the longer you wait the harder it especially after having kidds... now if they truly love eachother thats a different story... but if they dont love eachother than its pointless...

hey. well theres only 2 answers that i can come up with:

1. he doesnt want to be alone. he is scared of being out on his own and without someone to be with.

or

2. his religion does not allow him to divorce unless hes abused or cheated on (like christianity, for example)

of course, he may have his own reason, or has not considered leaving the woman. maybe you only see 1/2 of their life, and the 1/2 you dont see is when they hold eachother and have conversations and stuff like that.

hope i helped!

edit: FYI-i did not copy the other persons answer!
