Can a Wife force a Divorce in NY with no Grounds?

My wife of over 15 years just told me a few weeks ago that she doesn't love me anymore and wants out. I knew she wasn't happy and had "checked out" a while ago but it is still a shock to get to this point. She wants no reconciliation and just wants out but wants primary custody of our two young (under 12) children. She wants a mediated separation agreement yesterday. Unfortunately I am the breadwinner and she has only recently begun to work (at minimal wages). Being that I work full time, it would be difficult for me to argue for primary residence. If I simply ignore this (assuming I can live with someone who wants nothing to do with me) can she still force a divorce? I am a loving father who has done nothing but provide for my family's every need. No arguing, abuse, etc. If anything, I love her with all my heart but she just doesn't love me anymore. Shouldn't she be the one who leaves? Can she take down an "innocent man" with an attorney? I also don't want this to be adversarial for the kids sake (neither does she). Any comments?
