Remember that '70s song fifty ways to leave your lover? I hear it occasionally on those classic hits radio stations.

Well, like most, i'm in a relationship that is going nowhere and downhill every day. Its messy as there are kids involved too. However, I do not seem to be able to drum up the courage to face my wife and tell her that i'm leaving.

So i'm asking how has anyone else approached the same issue and how did you tackle it?
