[quote=Anonymous]As a man, married 14 years, kids 6 years older than yours:  I am not sure you have a realistic view of marriage.  I don't think too many couples have constant sparks.  I love my wife, I care about her (I am jealous of the amount of sex you too are having!).  But there aren't butterflies.  Marriage is for stability, not passion.  Which isn't to say there aren't ebbs and flows, where some days I am really into my wife, but most days are routine.

Did you have any other long term relationships before you married your husband?  I think those of us that did know that these butterflies and sparks fade with everyone; that if you end up with someone you love, find attractive, have decent and sometimes great sex with, can raise children with shared values, that is what counts.

It's all kind of irrelevant for you now that you have kids.  Sorry to be a downer.  Your only real choice is being a part-time mom in search of passion in a highly limited dating field now if you are a divorced mom.  Or staying, enjoying the stability, and making sparks happen when you can.[/quote]
