Try to get her to go into marriage counseling. If she refuses, you should still see someone on your own.

<p>I have a friend going through this now and have walked him through this so I hope it works.&nbsp;You guys need to see a counselor. Make sure you dont neglect the kids. If you have someone to talk to use them. Go talk to a professional also and make sure you get yourself on a right path. You'll be ok but its not easy. My friend and his wife are talkin of getting back together but its taken about 8 months of working on it and alot of time apart. </p><p>No easy answers budday. Keep your head up and keep doing the right thing.</p>

<p>Is she cheating on you?&nbsp; From what you say, you have been a saint for giving up your life to do everything with her and her friends.&nbsp; Something just doesn't seem right here.&nbsp; Everyone who has mentioned counseling, I can tell you first hand that if one person doesn't want to it's not going to happen and work.</p><p>I feel really feel bad and I have sympathy for you &amp; your kids since I have been through this but I am so much happier for have gotten divorced!&nbsp; You can't drop people out of your life for someone else and think you happy.&nbsp; It won't last long.&nbsp;</p>

Something seems missing from the original story here, you say you've done everything for her and seem to do everything to please her, what then made her all of a sudden decide to just end it? </p>
