Sorry to hear that man.

A similar thing happened to me within the last year. I'd been with her for 9 years and married for 6. We had bought a house together in the last year. We both just kind of realized we weren't happy together and didn't love each other anymore. No real arguments, we had just virtually been living as room mates for the last year together. She also sprang the reverse on me of what happened to you; she suddenly wanted kids when we had always been on the same page of neither of us ever wanting kids. Although that wasn't a deciding factor.

I moved out, we remain friends and as far as I can tell we are both a lot happier for it. First few months were rough but it got better. We still aren't actually divorced but I'm sure we will go through that process at some point soon.


As a sidenote, the girl I was with before my wife. The reason we split was because she wanted kids and I did not. We were happy together and had never once had an argument in ~3-4 years together. The kid thing was a deal breaker though. She had a kid like 1-2 years later so everything worked out.
