I'm thinking about getting a divorce

It's been 25 years since I married my husband who works for a manufacturer.
From the beginning of our marriage, I've been troubled by differences in values and contempt for me and my parents' house from my husband's house. I've been living with my husband's parents since 18 years ago.

All three children are almost adults. The three of them also have children, so you might think that they got along well in their own way.
I've always wanted to leave home, but I couldn't do it when I thought about my kids.

I became close friends with a single man in his 60s from about 3 years ago. Is it wrong for me to want to spend the rest of my life with that person?

It makes me want to die when I think I'll have to spend time with my husband the whole time after my kids leave home.
I think I can do anything if I feel like dying, but it makes me think about children.

I won't stop thinking

Hello. Thank you for your hard work in raising children.
To put it simply, “what you think” is probably unstoppable, so I'm not going to talk about it per se. (Please, but not).
However, it would be difficult for your husband to wake up alone, so please do something about it after you have left. The divorce is convenient for you, so if anything is asked, please respond sincerely.
Later, I will say goodbye to that person in their 60s at some point. In what form, it is undecided.
Even so, thank you for your hard work. That “disdain” probably continues even now, within you.

I don't think it's wrong.

I think the decision to leave the husband who accompanied you until now is sad when you think about it subjectively.
However, from an objective point of view, it would be individual freedom.

Hana worked hard for many years to build a relationship with her husband.

Even so, the husband didn't try to change, so unfortunately no further relationship was possible

I care about my children, but I'm close to being a great adult now.

If you leave without telling them anything, you may struggle to understand...
If you explain the situation slowly, there will definitely be nothing you cannot understand.

Please think carefully.

Is Hana's life her husband's life?
At the end of the day, is life for children who can become independent in the future?

If you feel that you can be happy by building a better relationship with “that person” in the future, that choice is not wrong.

However, please take responsibility for your own choices.

Please think carefully

I read it.
You've been raising your children and protecting your home while going through a very difficult time in your life up until now.
I'm sorry for your thoughts up until now.

They say that dogs don't eat in marital fights, so why don't people in red say this? I think so, but I'm sure they've had feelings for years up until now...

If possible, ask your adult child to consult with you, and try consulting with a third party who knows your family well and has a lot of life experience and common sense.

Life is a struggle.
Life is always fraught with love separation, resentment, and bitterness.
Nevertheless, life is blessed with many thankful relationships, and being able to make use of them together and grow together.

Please consult with everyone and then think carefully about how it is important to spend your future life calmly once again.
And once again, please face your husband carefully and talk to him.
If by any chance your husband slanders you or goes abusive, it will probably end at that point...

Just in case, I'm going to update the Ministry of Justice's Women's Human Rights Consultation Desk.

You can also receive advice from your local government or legal affairs bureau.

It's your life, so no one can force you. Please be careful and make a decision based on your own relationships with your future children.

I sincerely hope that your future life will be good friends with your children and you will be healthy and happy.

Your child knows your mother's happiness

It seems like 70% are leaning towards divorce.
If you read a magazine called “Fu O Kōron,” your intention to get divorced will increase to 100%, so don't read it yet. Even if you do, you are the one who loses if you don't get divorced wisely.
The reason a divorced woman in her 50s decided to divorce was her children.
“Watching my mom makes it hard. If it's hard being with someone like that, you can break up.” It seems that it became easier after being told that.
If the children are adults too, then they are free for each other.
I think talking to your children will make your feelings clear.
Marriage is an Abnai Bridge after all.
We met and got married a year or a few years later.
How many years to decades of marriage.
“Why did I get married to someone like this?”
“There could have been someone better...”
“Maybe we would have been happier if we split up sooner.”
The time allotted to see through the other person's humanity is very small in the number of years of marriage.
Even so, it's humans who get married.
Were humans born to get married?
Aren't we living to be happy?
If so, it's fine to get divorced, and you can choose a way to be happy without getting divorced.
You can't change people.
However, you can change your own mind.
The kindergarten teacher is good at rolling around without getting angry, even when the little kid says gagger.
Similarly, there are many women in this world who are good at rolling around against their husbands who say gaggy.
Let's let go of our own justice and the fact that we have our own righteousness.
Most of the causes of disagreements in relationships are each other's “own correctness.”
