Is it better to stick with a loveless marriage until children are of adult age and moved out of the house? At what point do you call it quits and start over? I've known many couples to have magically split after the last teenager moves out for college. I'm quite curious how other members of CP have endured the situation. Advice or stories sought. Cheers!

Went through this. I'll be honest. The divorce was a 4 year #### show but I still made the right decision. Got married last Christmas to a wonderful woman and my life is so much better.

Sure it can be hard on the kids but that depends on how you and your ex treat each other.

How to know when to leave? In my case, it was when I was 100% sure I did everything I could to make the marriage work. When it became apparent that I was the only one trying it was time to let it go.
