A friend of mine is going through this right now. Together more than 10 years, they have a child together as well and she has tried everything, couples therapy included. But she says she does not want to go home any more, has a knot in the stomach every evening - always worried about what his mood might be, what is the problem that evening, what will he be yelling about this time..

I would say that this is definitely a sign. If you are afraid to go home and relieved when your partner is not there, then probably this marriage should be put out of its misery.
This is not a failed marriage. This person that you refer to is abusive and has been hiding it for all those years. Sad but unfortunately true.

If you have this problem and aren't yet married, you should run not walk from the church/registrars office.
