Thank you all for the advice. It sounds like I'm not alone, which is nice to know. Part of me thinks I'm making too big a deal about this. Stepping back, cheating and leaving don't seem like reasonable responses to a simple difference in interests. I don't know why this is such a strong drive in me, why it feels like there's such a big hole in my life. Maybe it's just more that I know that there is part of me she doesn't understand and that I can't really explain to her. Makes you feel alone.
Anyway, rambling aside, we've been to counseling and tried reading books. The counselor was out of his league and basically told her to just say no to what she wasn't comfortable with. When we tried to read, she opened the book to a discussion of adult babies (not an interest of mine) and freaked. So, she's not willing to read more or let me pursue this with someone else. The only option I see is a better counselor. Wish me luck in finding one.
Thanks again for all the advice,
John
