Do I stay in a dead-end relationship that's going nowhere, or do I start again?

Question - (20 August 2010) 6 Answers - (Newest, 20 August 2010)
A male United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

Hi cupid,

I've been in a relationship for 6 years now, but I am really not happy. My partner only wants sex once a month, which doesn't seem right to me. I've tried to speak to her about it, but the only response I get is, If you're not happy, there's the door. I've even suggested counselling, but I just get told that I'm the one with the problem. I really am at my wits end. Do I stay in a dead-end relationship that's going nowhere, or do I start again?

Thanks.

zebralove agony auntEvery time a women gives you an opstion like that "if your not happy then there is the door" TAKE THE DOOR. Shes pushing you away by saying that. Part of her wants you to get out... So go you will be MUCH better off.

If she is telling you theres the door if you are not then I see little point in staying. It takes both partners to make things work.

Well, I don't think there is any point in staying in the relationship if you are unhappy. It sounds like you are willing to work on things, but she is not. For her to say "If you're not happy, there's the door", it really sounds like she is not bothered about the relationship at all.

I guess you could try one more time, maybe sit her down and say you are unhappy and would like to see if things can be improved together. But if she is still unwilling to try, then I don't think there is any point in staying.
