skinnycow, you are voicing typical thoughts most wives feel at some point. This feeling tends to surface when you do place him at the center of your universe.
You don't need to divorce to get your emotional fulfillment but you do need some personal time. You want things for yourself again and you SHOULD be able to go out and get them...AND still remain married.
In some ways, when a wife is fulfilled and pursuing her own dreams, she becomes a better wife. Her husband finds her more interesting and less of an emotional burden. Imagine how he must feel if he and the kids have to be your sole source of happiness.
Find yourself and be happy. Follow your passion. You can take your husband and kids with you along for the ride!
