这些人婚姻不幸,但她们为什么不离婚
FINANCIAL STABILITY
财务稳定
‘I’m really unhappy in my marriage and would love to walk out the day and start a new life for myself, but financially I know it’s not possible. My husband is the breadwinner and has always taken care of me’. – Kelley, 40.
‘我在婚姻中感受不到幸福,我也希望走出去开始一段新生活,但我知道我的经济状况不允许我这样做。我老公挣钱养家,而且一直都很照顾我。’——凯丽,40岁。
FOR THE KID’S SAKE
为了孩子
‘I’ve been married to Rob for over 20 years and we have 3 young kids together. When I was younger my parents broke up and I didn’t deal with it well, which is why I can’t bear to put my children through the same thing. I’m staying in my unhappy marriage for them’. – Emily, 43.
‘我和罗博结婚20年了,我们生了3个孩子。在我小的时候,我的父母分开了,我没有很好的处理这件事,所以我没有办法让孩子经历同样的境况。就算婚姻不幸,但为了他们,我也不会离婚。’——艾米丽,43岁。
FEAR OF BEING LONELY
害怕孤单
‘I can’t push myself to leave my miserable and sexless marriage because I’m so scared of being lonely. My husband has been my whole world for over 10 years and walking away to nothing at all really scares me’. – Sophie, 36.
‘我无法离开这段痛苦的、没有性生活的婚姻,因为我太害怕一个人了。10年多来,我的丈夫一直是我的全世界,离开他去过什么都没有的生活真的让我感到害怕。’——苏菲,36岁。
THOSE DREADED WORDS
那些令人害怕的言语
‘If I’m honest, the only real thing that’s holding me back in my marriage is me not wanting to hear my Mom say ‘I told you so’. My Mom never fully backed my marriage and I really don’t want to admit she was right all along, but I don’t know how much longer I can last’. – Rachel, 34.
“说实话,阻止我离婚的唯一原因就是:我不想听到母亲对我说‘我早就告诉过你了’。我的母亲从未完全支持我的婚姻,我真的不想承认她一直以来都是对的,但我不知道我还能坚持多久。”——瑞秋,34岁。
LACK OF CONFIDENCE
缺乏自信
‘Leaving my husband, getting a divorce and starting a new life is what I dream of doing, but I know deep in my heart that I don’t have the courage or confidence in myself to close the door or own relationship. I hate how much I rely on him!’ – Selina, 35.
