[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids can tell if you two aren't happy.  Just end it now and move on.[/quote]

Nope. Not if you're not openly fighting. Kids are too self-centered to notice "quiet indifference".[/quote]

I agree with this.  Even had a discussion about it with my young teenager.  He was saying that he thinks DH and I get along better now and are happier because we don't fight like we did a few years ago.  Truth is, we don't care anymore.  But, in the kid's view, everything is fine.[/quote]

The kid is telling you what he thinks you want to hear.[/quote]

ok, so what would you people suggest?  Divorce in a low conflict situation in order to find something better, be personally happier alone, show the kids that parental happiness is paramount? Stay together and let the kids see that while things aren't perfect, they aren;t that bad either and at least they have both parents in the house?  Just have an affair and forget about the situation at home?  It seems that there is no winning here. [/quote]

Yes. There is no good solution (other than healing your marriage).  It is an individual decision based on your finances, your children's needs, your faith, your careers, and how you would be as co-parents.[/quote]
