[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, I can't believe how many people support your idea to having this relationship limp along on life support. Why don't you want better for yourself? I know it's unfair, it's not how things were suppose to end up, but have some self respect and accept reality![/quote]

Lots of rich people don’t divorce. One party just stays at the beach house a lot, etc. If neither party wants to have another relationship, this can work. Honestly, this might be the kind of guy who realizes the grass isn’t greener and decides to work on the marriage.

My husband and I still love each other very much. But if he came to me tomorrow and said he didn’t love me, I would very much be having a logistical conversation with him. We have a child with profound SN, and it is easier to take care of her together than in two households. And realistically, right now, I think my other 14 year old would want to stay with me a lot more than him (which would break his heart and isn’t actually good for her either). I would likely highly encourage him to move into our in law suite and try to coparent that way for one year just to see how it might work. That way he sees the kids daily which is good for everyone. Honestly, I think my husband would quickly realize he preferred to live in the main house with all of us and that what I bring to the table brings a lot of good into his life.

There doesn’t seem to be a need to run to divorce court in the very specific scenario presented.[/quote]

This is exactly it. There is no reason to get divorced in this scenario. [/quote]
