[quote=Anonymous]I'd try marriage counseling.  Work on the issues the 2 of you have.  Figure out what you can live with and what you can't.  But I'd throw everything I could at making it work.

My parents are functional and divorced.  They have a better relationship than many of my friend's parents who stayed together.  I was 13 when they split, and I lived with my mom, but dad was nearby.  I absolutely did not want to change houses each week.

There were bumps and some learning, but it wasn't some horrible tragedy in my life.  I will say, I had siblings, which I think helped.  We could compare notes and strategize about how to deal with or manage our parents.  We still do that and we are all in our 40s.

Does your DH want more kids?  If he gets remarried to someone younger and has more kids that gets very complicated and messy.  My parents were in their 50s, and my dad did remarry, but someone his own age.  This would be the main reason I'd stick it out for awhile.  Men don't stay single and more children complicates the future IMMENSELY.  [/quote]
