I am new here and feeling broken beyond repair. My question is what do you all consider reason to no longer stay with your husband and what do you consider untreatable?

Hi Redeemed,
I think the only reason I would leave my husband is if he really wasn't repentant and didn't actively seek help from other men. I personally could not live with someone who continues to lie. It would only cause more damage to me and to our family.
Can you be more specific about your situation? I don't think anything is unforgivable, but repentance is absolutely necessary to go forward in the reconciliation process and rebuilding the marriage. If you want to know my story, you can check out the Forgiveness Log thread. We are in Affair Recovery right now and though difficult, we are making progress daily.

Hi Redeemed, for what its worth I don't consider anything untreatable, because Jesus is stronger than sin.

Redeemed, we really need a bit more information before we can give you a good answer to your question. The members here are supportive, loving, and understanding. I pray you will feel comfortable enough here to share your story.
I would say if the husband is unrepentant or abusive in any way is grounds for separation or divorce. The thing you need to consider is your safety and the safety of any children you may have.
I am praying for you.

Welcome, Britney to Blazing Grace.
Now in response to your question about what to do, I'd have to concur with the others who say more information is needed to give you an honest answer. Yet, a suggestion can be given while we await your response with more details.
The first I would suggest is to see what God has to say.
What does His Word say about your relationship with your spouse and your role as a wife?
We, for the most part, tend to think of our feelings when giving suggestions to others and tend to push a world view instead of God's will and word.
Quote from God's word:
1Co 7:10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband.
1Co 7:11 But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.
1Co 7:12 To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her.
1Co 7:13 And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him.
1Co 7:14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise, your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy.
1Co 7:15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let it be so. The brother or the sister is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace.
1Co 7:16 How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or, how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife? (NIV)
Here are three talks from a Biblical Teacher, David Pawson that I would suggest you listen to help you find God's will in your situation.
David Pawson - Male & Female - What's the difference?
Divorce and Remarriage by David Pawson
And last but not least:

May God the Holy Spirit guide you.
