DJL 235 #37 July 20, 2006 QuoteOne day your spouse tells you he/she is no longer in love with you. But they are willing to stay since you guys get along for the most part, and it would tear so many things apart to split up. They are willing to live a facade until the kids go off to college. Call me old fashioned, but I don't see why this is such a mystery. Back in the day it was understood that if the romantic spark wasn't there then you had separate beds and got along just fine."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sartre 0 #45 July 20, 2006 It's funny, I didn't think about hearing feedback from those who had grown up in a similar situation. That's the most important view of all. I guess it's a tough call to know what's best for your children. Mistakes are made, even with the best of intentions. sorry for dredging up depressing emotions for anybody...

MF42 0 #46 July 20, 2006 Maybe I'm interpreting the original question incorrectly. I'm thinking that if she one day says she no longer loves me, and I never saw this coming, then something dramatic must have recently changed. I'd be very curious what that something is. I wouldn't assume that her mind is irreversibly set on this course yet. Surely a marriage with children is worth a little investigation, at least.

sartre 0 #48 July 20, 2006 For what it's worth, I think you've made a very good argument for fighting for the marriage. I don't disagree with anything you've said. I'm just not sure if I could actually do that myself. If I was the one who was no longer loved by the other. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
