When you know you have done everything you can do to make things better and your partner does not care or respect you.

Interesting question, not sure if there is a quantifiable time frame. I would suspect that both spouses have discussed the marriage or the break of, especially if you children. If you havent then thats your first step. I would lay everything down on the table no matter how small. If there was infidelity, then that needs to be brought forth. Perhaps even a date/short vacation to try and rekindle the romance. From that if there is no more, then a discussion on what the marriage breakup would cause, especially if children are in the mix. Then perhaps try living apart, instead of a complete breakup. Then the eventual divorce.

Though it is very emotional, think about it like a business. You wouldn't stay in a business where you gave $10,000 and only received $500 back. Marriage is a lot like that. If you are putting a lot in and getting nothing in return, it is time to go out of business.

When I have tried EVERYTHING I can think of to fix the problem...even talking to him about it,but he isn't putting forth a real effort to correct the problem. Then I know that there's nothing else I can do,but make the decision to leave a hurtful relationship in the wind.

Listen to your heart,if you honestly feel you have done all you can, then your probably right.marriage is a two way street, it takes two to make it work.one cant do it alone, know matter how much you try.

When all your trying was for nothing, the other still does exactly what they want and could care less about you want to make things better.
