Living Together; Wanting A Divorce

· Because of the kids neither of you is willing to go til the settlement is final.
· Your mate has been untrustworthy with the finances in the past and you don’t know if s/he’ll be fair if you move out now.
· You both know the economy has to turn around before the family will be stable enough to withstand two households.
· You don't know what you can afford, so you feel you have to stay in the house together til the divorce is final.

Stuck in a Difficult Relationship

Relationship struggles come in all shapes and sizes. It doesn’t matter how large or small the struggle, relationship conflicts drain your energy. They cause painful feelings of sadness, frustration or anger. They can lead to self-doubt, hopelessness and even depression. While one response to a difficult relationship may be to just walk away, this is not always feasible, nor is it always advisable or possible. You can’t walk away from a child or a family member. You don’t always walk away from a marriage just because you go through some loneliness.

You are struggling both on a day-to-day level, and your higher self is seeking greater consciousness, spiritual awareness, and to become stronger, more competent and resourceful in all aspects of your life, even in your most difficult relationships. You don’t want to walk away from this challenge; you want to grow from this experience. And, you want to feel better and less stressed!
