This is so descriptive of my situation it is unreal. As you said, not all the days are bad; we have had good times as well. It has also been a roller coaster ride. She is not necessarily unstable, but she has a volatile temper and we are just opposites in many ways--sexually, athletically, etc. etc.. Our children are grown and we have one grandchild. Those are the reasons we stayed together. I think we both knew at the two year point that we should not have married (we had been shacking up for almost three years in college). Neither one of us has ever had the guts to follow through on a divorce. Good luck to you; hope you do what is best for you.
