I am a 34yo male who has been married for 8 years. I have a degree in electronics, but I have been working in software for 8 years. I make about double what my spouse makes. We own a nice house, truck, camper, boat, etc. Everything is paid for but the house which is reasonable. We spend our money on dining, trips, movies, etc. We have no children due to fertility issues.
Problem: I hate my job. About two years ago, I started yearning for a new job, but the wife always complained when I mentioned that I would probably make much less than I make now. I am very unhappy. She will not consider in vitro or adoption. Having children is a must for me. I have asked for divorce twice so I could get control over my life back. We have been in counseling together and individually ove the last year. I am sad and resentful and keep thining about life on my own.
I don't want to play anymore and wanted to ask the world what a guy can do to cure his midlife crisis before I make a horrible mistake.
