I look after her so much but she doesn't see anything special in us anymore. I think she's staying with me because she needs me but also she wants freedom and youth again.
Besides sex everything is fine until she's really drunk and then she turns hypercritical and talks about splitting up only to take it all back the next day. It got to a head when I caught her flirting with some random stranger outside the bar we were in last night.
Would you
1. Try and be a better husband and somehow change her thoughts and behaviour?
2. Call it a day and take your chances with a new life, find a nice girl young enough to start a family with in a few years time?
I'd definitely take 1 if I thought I could change things.

It takes two to save marriage. Personally i think you failed at that part where
>married to alcoholic borderline anxiety girl
Since you have no kids, divorce asap. Why have you even married in the first place when 0 kids?

Has there been any therapy, alcoholics anonymous, any sort of professional assistance with her mental illness?
>gets drunk and talks about splitting up
Most drunks talk about what's really on their minds.
>flirting with some dude outside the bar
>never has sex anymore
If you have given couples' counseling, therapy, everything a try and she's still like this, it might be time to move on when you've exhausted all your options.

>masturbating while a willing partner is less than 20 feet away
yeah id have divorced her after the first time that happened
hide your assets and talk to a lawyer before you even mention it to her, though
no kids in the picture right?
sounds like you're ready to cut the tether so do it, the first marriage is just practice for the second one anyway
Sorry was just talking to her

No kids of course. Gallows humour is just what I need right now
>>18409371
Assets should be no problem thankfully

>Most drunks talk about what's really on their minds.
That was my thinking. No counselling of any kind yet. She's anxious about doctors so avoided getting treatment for anxiety since she first went as a kid.

The plan was marry then kids like a good wholesome family
