If you don't know if you love her, you probably don't love her as much as she deserves to be loved. You have to learn to love her. Get to know her better. Love your son together. Help make your family a happy and loving one. Just do your best to foster love not just in your marriage and family, but everywhere in your life. This will help.

The guy never said he was unhappy. Sounded more confused to me and besides, what's love got to do with it anyway? You've got a son now. If you don't have love in your heart for him, you are an emotional cripple and will never find "love". "Man up" and learn how to live with the life you've chosen.

Communication & respect are the keys to a successful marriage (advice from a husband, happily married couple, together for 55 years) A secret I was told when I was young.

You don't know if you love your wife? Buddy, you either do or you don't. It ain't that hard to know either way. Like the song says, "Love the one your're with!" She must love you to give you a son. I wish a woman loved me that much. You know, if you try just a little bit, you just might find something about her that you love. Build on that, my friend. Fall in love with your wife.

You decided to bring a child into this marriage, for his sake you must do the right thing. It's no longer about you! So many "families" are distroyed because we a selfish. Love her through your son. It's time to Man-Up!

If you really don't believe you can do better, than you can't. But either way, being married just for the kid is no reason at all...just an excuse.

My first thought is to de-rate you but I think you have self confidence issues. No one can fill that void for you. You may love her more than you know

Every person is worth loving, some of us are just not confident enough to express ourselves. If we look for the value in the people who are too scared to let themselves be seen, they will have the confidence to do so. And we will never doubt their worth again.

I almost did that too. I thought this is part of growing up. I got lucky and found that really made me feel like it was teenage love again. Married her after 5 yrs.

With an attitude like that, it sounds like you've already done better than you deserve. I hope you wife's eyes open and she moves on to someone she deserves... better than you.

Just about every one I know got married for the wrong reason(s). Thinking that we'll never do better is the most common of all. I did.

You,my friend,are a dumbass.Having said that,I can see where being with someone is better than being alone.

I know someone that did this and I think it is a major mistake that will suck the literal life out of you...you will wake up or meet the one you truly want and realize that you wasted too much of your life on that person you settled for....you can't get that time back and you aren't doing love any justice.

Thats the way some marriages are....some marriages are planned by the family and you marry who you are told to marry.....
