Am stuck in a 20 years relationship with zero physical intimacy since beginning, my spouse doesn’t seem to think it’s an issue and never bring up the topic of divorce throughout these years.

i am reaching my limit and wanted to leave. We have nothing in common, spend weekends in silence and he earns much lesser than i do.

Based on legal advice, think WC only protect poor women, if you have more matrimonial assets than your spouse, you may have to part with 50% of your assets and if he takes over the house, he will only need to return the portion of my CPR used for housing, nothing more. Basically I have to “buy” myself out of it and become homeless.

how do i break the news to him that it’s time to end it and make him realise that he has been very unfair to me?

many couples got married without even having honest and open conversations about sex, money, interest and lifestyle beforehand

if you think its beyond any discussion just give it to him straight

20 years already... its time to have an honest conversation

Being BBFA is not as bad as it seems when u don’t have a good marriage
of course....same goes for everything in life.
as long as things go fine, ppl are ok....whether it is marriage, rs, job or just anything in general

Why did you marry him in the first place? Any kids? Just tell him the first two paragraphs, except he earns lesser.
Before marriage still ok but just after he kenna slipped disc and we totally stopped, he never bother to do anything about it, I thought it was shallow of me to leave because of that but 20 years is too long and the love is gone.

living like housemates and siblings now, feels very awkward sometimes

To stay single and maybe happier? Cos he is MCP, everything also must control, including my choice of work desk at home. He insisted must get same as his even though i don’t need adjustable desk and had a huge fight over such stupid thungs.
