Are you staying in an unhappy marriage/relationship for your kids?
Do you think staying in an unhealthy/unhappy relationship for your kids sake is a good solution, considering that they know you are not happy and may carry this warped idea of what love is with them into their own future relationships?
That situation only works if the parents are on good terms and are friendly with one another. Even then, it’s a stretch. Divorce is hard on children, but you are right to worry about what you inadvertently teach them about love by staying in an marriage lacking love.

It’s good that parents think of their children when making life altering decisions, but the parent must also take into consideration their own happiness as well.
