JCred-
Is it unimportant to say why? I guess she and I both know. I guess it would seem like an ultimatum if I went into the details.

She is asking for what I want to do and this would be it.

Your version:

I have been doing some thinking in the last few days and this is what I have decided. I've decided that our current situation is not going to work for me. maybe you are right - our marriage will not survive.

You are, and have always been free to leave and I think that would best for us. I'm through with pressuring you to be my wife, and I now understand and hear you loud and clear. You really don't want to be with me and l don't want to be with someone who doesn't want to be with me. I've been settling for less for too long. So you can do what you want and I'm going to do what I want. I'm going to start wanting something better for me.

I do think we should separate and I think it would be best if you moved out as soon as possible.
