You don't want my marital advice! I'm stuck, and finally starting to get some courage!
But, I do know kids and family/parental dynamics. And, no matter what happens, you and your W have the responsibility to raise those kids responsibly, w/out a cloud above their head or a worry on their mind regarding what one of you may or may not think about the other parent. Don't let them lose their innocence in this.
I will give my H credit. He has been an amazing StepDad to my D18. He's ALWAYS made her feel like his own. And, he's a super Dad to our boys, as well. He always puts them first, no matter what... He's never hinted, even a tiny bit, about not being happy within the home, or let them see it within him.
And, for the most part, he's incredibly good to me. But, stuck is not a place to be, still...
Remember that...
I've seen Rob's "way" work many times in raising the level of interest. It takes courage. Some of us can carry it out; some of us can't. I'm not sure a negative reaction to it is all bad. At least you're not stuck!

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
