consider the end of a 7 year marriage. we have nothing in common any more. he can not discuss the issues rationally. BUT we have a young child. he is generous. there is nothing obiously "wrong". although everytime we argue, his first line of defence is maybe we should take a break.

the top answer...
#1: first [50.0%]
#2: you should take a break [25.0%]
#3: talk to a counselor [25.0%]
the details...
you should take a break.
try counseling first. relationship and spiritual
try counseling first. If he will try, I think counseling would be a great thing to try. If he won't try it, you go see someone and discuss your problems, I went to counseling alone and discovered what I needed most was to divorce my first husband. GOOD LUCK
talk to a counselor. preferably both of you talking to a 3rd party who can be unbiased, can help you talk out your differences, and decide if your relationship has the chance for a future. Staying together just for the kid isn't always the answer. Kids pick up on when things aren't right.
Take a break or split. You need to show your child what a healthy, adult relationship is for his/her development. Pretending for the child does not work- they aint fooled.
