No, you're not doing anybody any good by continuing a sham. All you achieve is preventing both of you from finding a more compatible partner. And, if there are kids in the equation you can be certain they know exactly what is going on. Definitely the answer is no!

I tried to for 7 yrs...because of my son. But, then I saw the ill effects that our marriage was having on him... and realized, I needed to take action. It was very difficult but has been the best thing for my son.....and for me.

Why would someone even marry without love. There are many cultures that choose for their children to marry. In the olden-days some of our parents stayed together for the sake of the children. I personally, wouldn't do it cause it would be to much torment for me, my husband and the children...

I truly don't know. I can't imagine being married to someone I wasn't in love with. I suppose it depended on the circumstances.

Unfortunately the easy way out is the norm. It takes work to make a marriage work and shouldn't be entered into lightly. When you love someone, you may not necessarily like them all the time....it's about acceptance, tolerance, dedication and some self examination....We tend to expect people to change to please us....and that is not love...that's selfishness. The vow's specifically says through better or worse, the good and the bad, in sickness and in health...so it seems to me that we don't take oaths or binding contracts seriously...what does that say about our integrity?

I would stay and work on my marriage....only in extreme circumstances would divorce be an option....abuse.

No, when one person falls out of love with the other, they have no respect or compassion anymore. You are going through the motions but don't really mean it. Why stay married. Life gets pretty unbearable. And it hurts the kids more because they see the motions and know its only motions.

I find it hard that some can do just that. Getting up every morning to face a man or a woman you did not love would make for a miserable life, IMO.

Without love? No I don't think I could stay in a marriage where there is no love. That does not benefit anyone involved the other spouse the kids the family it only hurts everyone involved.
