The answer

The presence of affection between spouses requires patience, overlooking faults, and focusing on the good aspects. Not all homes are built on love, but rather on cohabitation with kindness.

So, be patient with your wife and treat her kindly. Divorce should only occur after all means of reconciliation have been exhausted. If you cannot remain chaste or feel repulsion towards her, it is permissible for you to marry again, provided you are just between your wives. If you are unable to do so and find it impossible to live with your wife kindly, then divorce her, and do not leave her like one suspended.
