You're married but realize after five years it was a mistake. Counseling failed, and you don't love them, but they still love you. What do you do?

As heart breaking as it is you walk away, you don’t deserve to spend your life being unhappy to make them happy and they deserve someone who wants to be with them

@BrandNewMan Understood. It doesn't have to be that way. It takes work and compromise for both people. It can be done .It's not perfect but it can be done.

@SW-User Yeah. Problem is, thats often the reason a marriage doesnt work in the first place as one or both partners are unable to manage that.

True story.

@BrandNewMan that is true ..

You took an oath before God and your family. "Til death do us part".... those vows aren't just words, they're a promise. You have to make it work.
Neither of us would be happy in that situation. So I’d cut my losses and move on. No use staying and making it an even bigger mistake.

If he loves me i would stay and make my marriage work. It's not easy to find love anymore.

Tell myself that there must have been something there at first, or that if they love me, that's a sign I should love them back.

I'd do my best to rekindle the love, but if that doesn't work then it would be best if we split up.

End it. Life is too short to spend any of it being miserable.
Lack of efforts
Too much ego
ETC...

You have to make it work

I guess 5 years sleep is bit long.
You’ve got a housemate for life.

Wow!! Love is associated with so many actions, emotions, reactions, consequences and all.. look for the reasons what's changed what's missing what's the new requirement etc

Divorce? Why be with someone I don’t love anymore
