[MrBond]

"I have been thinking about if I really want this marriage to work. Right now it's a hard question for me to answer. I dread the thought of not seeing my kids every single day of my life. I can't imagine living without my family. However, we really do not have much in common. "

BS, your M failed because you failed to sustain it. You were together for 14 years. People don't "grow" apart. When the two of you first dated, regardless of how little you had in common, you always found a way to include her in your life. Over time you just got lazy and stopped doing that.

Saying that you don't have that much "in common" is a cop out. It's what all WAS's tell themselves.
