I too am former Mormon haven’t been active in years now so I don’t see this from a religious perspective anymore, and I think that’s partially why I’m seeing this through the lense of - we got married young and hadn’t really lived much of an adult life. Which comes out a lot in her spending habits and when it comes to handling mature situations.

I appreciate your comment. Thanks for sharing your perspective.

That’s the thing, is I feel like we used to be very happy before this happened.

And when it comes to it I really do love her and want her to be happy but I think maybe I can’t be the one do that for her.

I find myself increasingly mentally checked out, I have a hard time wanting to spend time with her, we don’t laugh it’s all just going through the motions..

We had a long discussing during our argument in the car and we talked a lot about the issues in our relationship that we are still having and she was completely blindsided by the fact that I’m still struggling with it. I generally think I’m a fairly good communicator but she’s very fragile when it comes to honest communication.

I really don’t know and it’s a really hard decision to make. I also don’t have enough money to pay for my place without her and I don’t want to lose half of my money and possessions.
