So many posts are from women who are living with emotionally abusing husbands, yet they stay in the marriage.
Living with cruelty is draining both emotionally and physically. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

How do you define when a marriage is over for good?

That's a good question. I read this post a few days ago and had a bit of an issue with coming up with an answer. Putting aside the obvious answers such as abuse, the one though I kept coming back to is when you just don't want to be with your spouse anymore. You cannot see your future anymore, you aren't happy and it's not because you can't resolve certain issues. You don't feel the same, you've exhausted all possible answers and it's just not there anymore.

Sometimes one spouse grows and the other stays stagnant.

If pain in a relationship exceeds any pleasure that it may be giving, and there is no hope that it will ever change, the marriage is over.
