Today, I told my wife I wanted a divorce. I haven’t been in love with her for a long time and I've fallen in love with a girl at my job. When I told her this, she responded with, “No, fuck that, we're going to couples' therapy and you are gonna be a father to our kids!” I guess that’s a “No.” FML

Honestly, you should be happy she said that and didn't smack you and kick your balls. SHE LOVES YOU, YOU ******* DUMMY. She's putting in effort to salvage and maintain the marriage. You don't deserve her but you better comply. **** your wife's life. Do not cheat on her (you technically already did emotionally) Stop talking to that co worker Show effort and participate in what should be a team effort. DO NOT BLOW IT. Most women would ditch an asshole such as yourself.

Let me ask you something: If the girl at work didn't want to date you, would you still leave your wife? Because that could happen. Or you could start dating her and then for some reason that doesn't work out. Remember that most people are like secondhand cars: They look best from 20 feet away. Same with her. Some say that the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. I say the grass is green where you water it . So, really give the therapy a chance. That way at least if you leave, you do it for the right reasons.

About half the time marriage counselors just help people divorce smoothly. Don't worry they aren't going to trick you into loving your wife or something.

(1) Decide to stay in a relationship or marriage based on the merits of that relationship and not based on having the hots for someone you don’t know well… (2) If you do decide to get divorced, most US states are “no fault” states and you do not have to get permission to file for divorce. Obviously if you have an amicable divorce it’s a lot better, when there are kids involved because you are going to be dealing with your ex for a long time… (3) A piece of advice - Go to the marriage counseling. It may or may not change your mind, but you will always be able to say to yourself “I tried” and you will know the truth about that. And go to a divorce attorney (alone) for the typically free initial consultation. They can tell you how much this will probably cost you both for legal fees, property split, and for support - US state laws vary.

Yeah being adult sucks. But you wouldn’t want to relive your childhood. So man up and be responsible!

your life sucks because you can't even be man enough to figure things out like an adult with their spouse. boofuckinghoo bitch

also really, do your awesome kids like that so you can get your dick wet? **** you. I wish castration was legal for boys like you playing in a man's role

don't let anyone bully you in to being in a relationship, kids can see and feel when there parents aren't happy. you can still be their father and not be married, you can get 50/50 custody, but you don't have stay I just for the kids.

You had time to make up your mind, and you did it alone. To be blameless you should have talked to her at the start when the love faded. Then you could have made the choice together to try to save or abandon your mariage. You dumped this on her, she’s just asking for therapy before anything…… maybe you owe her that at least?
