you are so fucking lucky. Unfortunately I am married to a woman who considers me third class, behind her family, then our son, then me. Family? What family? It's like a fucking broken house - th ...
Oh wow. That does sound bad.... very bad and I feel sorry for you.
Not much I or anybody here could/should advise you - except that it is always IMHO - a bad idea to get divorced NOT MATTER WHAT. This may come across to you as being sanctimonious/hypocritical coming from me who's been divorced/re-married quite happily - but I never wanted the divorce PLUS when it happened, it really shattered my AND my kids' lives (and presumably also my ex-wife's too). Nobody deserve such unhappiness/trauma - just not worth it AND completely avoidable.
And upon reflection, I should have just nipped it all in the bud - the begiining of the unhappiness in our marriage, that is. I should have taken POSITIVE actions to 1. try to figure out what WAS actually wrong with the marriage 2. Identify parts that WAS my fault 3. Taken steps to correct myself first and just do it irrespective 4. Being the Male of the union, slowly, TENDERLY and with all the LOVE I know I am capable of having (for after all, I got married to her as I did love her), try to make her understand that we must now take steps together to preserve the union.
Hindsight IS 20-20 - so howzabout you use what I learned as a foresight?
Saying that its too bad for the kid or your "assets" is an excuse. You KNOW deep within your own heart that you don't want a divorce and that the whole thing is wrong - and I betcha your wife probably thinks the same thing. So why continue to live together in misery?? Since you ARE gonna stay married, PLEASE do what is necessary.
Or as my Dad would have said it - you're the man - you have the responsibility, right and duty to preserve the marriage.
Just IMHO
