Why is this so damn hard?

I've worked so hard to get this far, but being is far is a waste.  Yes, I made it out the hood.  Yes, I have the degrees.  Yes, I have a suburban home.  Yes I have great kids.  But it seems my marriage may be a farce.  I hide from emotional exposure.  He emotionally cheats.  From the outside, it seems that we have it.  Don't we all seem that way?  But on the inside, it's a house of cards.  One wrong move, and it could tumble.  Fall apart.  Kersplat! 

But what do we do?  How much of this is just life and how much of it is changeable.  Is it all fixed or is there something we can do about it?  Why does life only give you a limited time to solve it.  Solving it is a full time job, but you only get an hour a day to do it...after kids bedtime and before you fall out from exhaustion yourself.  How am I supposed to create an awesome life when I'm forced to do all that I need to do and none of the things I want.  This must be a cruel joke.
