[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: my kids were conceived in once-in-blue moon things. I did not expect to get pregnant either time (the first time was a true no-protection mistake). Also, this is not just about sex. [b]We don't talk except for things dealing with the kids. We do not go out. We are not friends. We are not close emotionally or physically. This about how do you stay for kids if you are unhappy every single day and feel like you are in prison even though "it is best for the kids."[/b] (Even if we divorced I know 100% they would have a better childhood than I did for a variety of reasons--and my parents were married, unfortunately). [/quote] This is where I am, too. I know I should do the things another PP suggested.* It just seems like so much work... especially for someone I feel doesn't even really like me... * "Plan a regular date night where you schedule an activity to do together - tennis? Bowling? Biking? Anything you can do together. Put your resentment aside, share a bottle of wine, and I isolate sex with him. Do it again in a few days. Send him texts thanking him for doing x/y/z, and telling him how much you appreciate something he's done. Ask him to take walks with you after dinner. Start watching a show together, and sit near each other while you watch."[/quote]
