When it comes to relationships, we often do what we have seen our parents or guardians model in their relationships. This may be good, or this may be bad depending on the kind of relationship our parents have or had. If you grew up in a household where the relationship between your parents was explosive and volatile, you are most likely repeating that in your current relationships.

No matter what, there is no easy way of moving forward with this decision but with the right help the transition can be smoother for both you and your family.

You recognize that no one is perfect, and that no relationship is perfect, but you also know that things could be better than they are.

The decision about whether or not to stay in a marriage is not one you should have to make alone.
