I really appreciate you writing in and adding your story. It sounds like you've been on the road to this decision for a long time, and I can tell that it's been really hard. I think you are right -- we as women do tend to put everyone else first, it seems to be part of our genetic wiring in addition to being socially acceptable. I would be interested to know more about you and how you finally came to the decision to leave. How will your husband be supported and cared for without you? I ask only because I think that's a major obstacle for many spouses who otherwise might choose to leave.
I wish you only the best, and hope to hear more from you.
