To leave my husband because I am not happy in the relationship anymore. We have two kids-(one is his bio kid, and oldest has been his since 1 yr. old.) and we have been together for eight years, married for 4. I love him, but am not in love with him-and it has been that way for years. I married him for the kids, and in a way felt like I settled. Recently we've had problems and we are currently on a trial seperation. During this period he has told me the things that he will change etc...and that he's realized a bunch and wants to stay together. He never doubted that he wanted to be with me, he just couldn't handle the kids, our life etc...Reality, basically. Meanwhile, I have realized how unhappy I've been and have another prospect for love which has made me come back to "life". I know I will miss aspects of the life we had, I love him as a person and want to still be close, but I also want to be "in love" again. I feel responsible for him, I'm afraid he won't be o.k without me.
