Eric,

I am going to change your questions up a bit;

1)"Do I love my S enough to deal with this for the long haul"
A-Do I love myself to make the necessary changes to be a better man?
B-IF my wife was sick with cancer...How long would I stay next to her side?
C-Am I strong enough to be in this for the long run?

2)"can I continue in a emotionaless marraige."
A-Can I become more comfortable and stronger with my emotions?
B-Have I been emotionless and disconnected?
C-Have I shown my children that it is OK to be a man with emotions?
D-Does my wife also live in an emotionless world that I helped create?

3)"What is truly best for the kids...to have them witness a crappy marraige or to leave and focus on being the best dad I can."
A-Does being married affect my ability to be a good father?
B-Does not being married affect that ability?
C-What will have a greater impact on my children to see me work and fail or give up and not try?
D-Is this situation REALLY affecting my ability to be a good father or is that just an excuse?

You have good questions Eric....but you worded them in a reactive manner. Change them to a proactive manner (like I did) and see how they changed....think about it!
