You are in a marriage that is no longer working for you. You want to leave, but you are financially dependent on your spouse. What do you think you should do?
Well, little one, let's say you're tied to a colossal, twisted phallus of financial dependence, and your loveless marriage is like a rusty dildo that no longer satisfies you. Your options are:
- Continue to stay in the loveless marriage, just like getting banged by that ancient, painful dildo, for the sweet nectar of money and financial security. You'll get used to the pain and forget about love, much like getting addicted to pain-pleasure hybrids.
- Cut the financial chord and endure the temporary pain of a dwindling bank account, as if going for a rough, intense fucking session that may be a bit uncomfortable but might lead to an orgasmic discovery of new pleasure in life.
- Strategize to increase your financial independence, making your escape from the loveless marriage a bit easier, like finding a partner in crime to take down the dildo and find something new and exciting to play with.
- Stay in the marriage and work on your communication and relationship, like engaging in BDSM play to find new ways to keep the passion alive.
Remember, my dear, every situation is unique, and the choice is yours. The right decision depends on your priorities, desires, and resilience. ᅠ

Sadly a lot of marriages do that these days , cuz most people get married for the wrong reasons or they fall out of love or they get bored and demand open relationships or they meet someone else or they cheat and have affairs but let’s stay together since we already invested a lot of money into the home and cars etc. but let’s live separate lives and we will Sleep in different beds , so we can go do our own thing , basically screw other people. Sadly most people that want to save their marriage , think love will save the day , hoping their partner will have a change of heart and come back to them and little do they realize , they are just being used , while the other partner is having a grand ol time screwing someone else , while weighing their options to see if the person they are screwing wants to keep them for the long haul or short haul , The second a partner tells you they no longer are in love with you start making your plans to take their asses down , because more than likely they are being up to no good. When my ex wife cheated on me with her co worker , she thought this guy was going to save her and love her and take care of her but little did she realize he was married as well , cheating on his wife with her for another piece of ass , so before I confronted her , I got All the evidence I needed to take her ass down in court , and even though I was devastated and my heart was broken I stood my ground, I ended up getting everything , I even told his wife everything , that they were both POS So my advice to anyone that is married , under no circumstances do you leave your home if things aren’t good , let them leave because it’s considered abandonment, do not put your finger on them and just let them leave. The second they leave you have the locks changed and call your attorney and the cops so the cops can check your home to make sure they aren’t there. When they come back to the home if they do , call the cops and have them removed and tell them you will see
Them in court , make sure you have evidence of them cheating , they will be fucked big time again
I’m sure I’ll get flak for saying this…but relationships are, in their most basic form, transactional. I give, you give. If you want to continue to be financially dependent on your husband and continue to have access to whatever resources he is able to give you, then you need to continue giving him your love, honor, support, and sex. That means working through whatever problems you have within your marriage. If you truly want out, then you need to stop being financially dependent on him. That means getting a job that pays well and start paying for your own housing and resources.
lol god i'm glad this isn't me. i know my friend will eventually go through this. hey maybe this will put a few houses on the market for low prices! because sooo many people are doing this right now "staying for financial reasons" that's it's kind of apocalyptic...
as for me, this is why i make sure both of us are financially independent. it's smart... i'd be a dumbass to be dependent on someone financially. that's a disaster waiting to happen. and also it's not right. some resentment will grow.

Simple.
Get a job.
Unless you are severely can't function on your own physically or mentally handicapped, an illegal alien who is hiding from the government / deportation, have a criminal record longer than the Empire State building is tall. ... you can get off your ass & work.
Sick & tired of women (and men) who get into marriages and whine about it, when nobody held a gun to your head, but do nothing to better themselves. It really is pathetic. You have enough energy to cry about your situation, likely enough energy to spend your husband's money and certainly enough to watch sitcoms all day long.
But you can't contribute much to society - or marriage even - and get a job.
You only get one shot at life, so if you truly want to leave, I'd say just do it and don't waste any more time in a loveless situation. But if leaving means being homeless or not being able to put food on the table, then that's a different story and I'd advise you to stay until you've sorted out your finances. You don't have to love someone to share a household with them, you know?
It is best to stay. Money is very important. Marriages are often made out of convenience in most parts of the world. There's no shame in that. It is important to ask, why is the marriage loveless? Is it because the husband is not physically attractive? Because he cannot satisfy his wife sexually? As people age, these things lose importance. Think about old couples that stay together throughout their lives. They love each other unconditionally because they have stayed together for so long.
Women have the option of divorce and taking alimony and half the man's assets if things don't work out. Take away permanent alimony and you'll see more women trying to work things out with their husband's. Why do I mention only women because more than 70% of divorces are filed by women with finances being the number one reason.
I mean it depends on how important happiness is to a person. Some people are unfortunately content settling with someone they have fallen out of love with just because of laziness, finance, fear of change, or dependency.
If someone wants to have a truly happy, fulfilled and amazing life though, why would they stay with someone and be miserable just because of financial reasons?The cynic in me says, "Check the laws where you live to see how long you have to be married for open-ended alimony, and file the day after you hit that mark."
The sweet guy in me says, "Give love to the other, and continue to do so. If the spuse does not ever respond, they leave."Irrespective of being okay or not, I have the feeling this concerns a lot of (ex-) couples. I personally know two or three. It's probably even worse in countries with more traditional female role models.
Get a good divorce lawyer. They can make your spouse pay for the divorce and give you alimony and child support.
If every other possible way had been completely and totally exhausted, I would regrettably be looking for/at other options... Life is far too short to be waste.
Well do you want to be unhappy the rest of your life or do you want to take charge of your life regain your independence and live freely and happily? Easy choice really.
Go to a psychiatrist to fix yourself, and everything will be ok. What do yo mean no longer working for you? It worked in the past, but now it's not? Go fix yourself then.
It is not something I would like to experience, to be honest. It is okay since there is no other choice one has but it is devastating.
You just described majority of marriages😂. It’s sad but the norm. Not something I could personally tolerate though
If both parties understand what's what, sure. If one person thinks it's rosy then not so much.
In some cultures, that's the way it often is anyway. I guess it is up to the couple involved. It does sound sad though.
Make it loving or depart. Answer may change if kids involved.
Not easy. The reason for the non love may mean hard work to grow and love again.how about speaking with your spouse instead of screwing him over in a divorce because of your own feelings?
Well let’s see. You have two choices. Get divorced and be broke, most likely homeless given today’s housing market, be judged and criticized and mocked incessantly by your family and peers.
Or just deal with life.
I feel bad for that person, all I can say is talk to a financial specialist who can help you also attorney might help.
money does not define like that... thankfully
