The answer

He must try to reconcile with his wife by acting wisely, being a good role model, and continuously advising and admonishing her, accompanying this with good deeds. If these means do not succeed, then he should add lawful abandonment, prevent her from harmful relationships, and he can marry another if he is able. He must also fear Allah and fulfill His rights. As for not having children, that is not a solution and may lead to greater harm.
