Divorce help

My husband and I have been arguing the last 2 weeks. To the point that he will not speak to me the past 2 weeks...I said things I didn't mean when I was hurting and I apologized to him for it and asked if we could please communicate better. I told Him it's been 2 weeks I have given him space, now it's time to talk. He kept saying he is here for his children and will do what he has to for them. I said what about us? He looked me in my eye and said "I don't care about you, you do nothing for me, get a lawyer like you said. I'm not getting one because I don't want to" His parents stayed together for him and his siblings. They split up and got back together just for them. So he didn't grow up in a loving home. I told him I will not raise our children in an environment like that. So I emailed a divorce lawyer. I am just so sad and feel so lost. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I am in a similar situation! My inbox is always open if you need to chat.

Is there truly a divorce needed? If you said it then I guess deep down you want out. I’m not sure what isn’t working as you aren’t specific about that other than arguing. It is hard on the kids if you stay together unhappy or split and are happier that way. My parents divorced when I was just out of high school. I definitely always thought when they argued why don’t they just divorce. But it definitely affected the way I treated my mom bc I knew she wanted to leave. So I would highly suggest counseling. My parents almost 15 years later still bring up stuff about each other that we just don’t want to hear about.
