Your happiness isnt his to decide.
It sounds like you have tried to make it work to no avail.
I’d say time for you to move and be happy somewhere, and to let him be miserable alone.
This doesn’t sound like a partnership, but more like a millstone to your neck.

And I bet your kids will realise it.
Staying in a failed relationship hits them harder than one thinks. Resentment against your current other half isnt the role model you want them to learn.
Does it matter what people think if you leave the relationship? Seriously, you only have one life. No point in living it miserable.

I agree and that was something I held onto a lot when divorcing my 1st wife for her affair.
Our marriage had many issues and we shouldn’t have ever been together. I/we should have left each other before I caught her cheating.
Our children were still young when I divorced her and even though that was painful, difficult etc. I recognized it was better for our 3 young children to have us divorce in order to be able to see of us happier without each other.
Honestly, it was BETTER for our 3 children that my 1st wife and I divorced each other, regardless of the reason.
They turned out better for it. I’m glad she and I didn’t remain together longer, for all of our sakes.
