I was with the same man at a young age and after 10 years we grew apart and became different people. I was miserable and we could not work together to save our life.

I met a man who I had a connection with, he was also in a 10 year relationship with kids. Almost 3 years later and So far it's working out. We get along, have common interests, and laugh 99% of the time. I can actually have an adult conservation and learn from him. Even if it doesn't work out in the long run, staying in that marriage would of been a lot worse.
