[Dan in Pasadena]

Married at age 23; lasted 6 weeks short of 20 years, wife comes home and wants out. No cheating, beating, drinking, drugs, money problems, raising kids problems, no verbal abuse either direction. Still can't put "why" into a single sentence.

I have been in a live in relationship for almost 8 years. Rebuilt my life with a great woman in many ways but there are some issues. We'll see what happens.

No, never remarrying. I am a "commitment" kind of guy as my track record shows. But getting married doesn't assure a damned thing. The results of my marriage shows that. Marriage (despite what many think - I thought it) doesn't assure anything. It could have been ME that came home and simply "wanted out". I'm not opposed to marriage in a general sense, but for me as a middle aged man with children raised, retirement assets, etc. it would serve no positive purpose whatsoever and MIGHT result in a huge negative in my life if it ended again.
