We had relatively opposite work schedules (him M-F 9-5, me 1 week on/1 week off night shifts). We paid off all non-mortgage debt, and had our "Aha!" moment and realized that I made more than 4x what he made, and we were easily living off just his paychecks alone. That, combined with the whole "never seeing each other" thing, factored in to him quitting and not looking back. Also helps that I am in a phase where I love what I do (and someone pays me a shit-ton to do it!), and he never really found his "calling" at a j.o.b.
And no, we don't have kids (yet), and it's been 2 years since he quit (at age 27). He is incredibly productive at home (DIY, cleaning, etc), and has no desire to "work for pay" again. We are both much more relaxed, as we feel we've each found our niche in our relationship. Ironically, my salary has increased to more than cover what we "lost" from him not working anymore - not that we need it, but it will help with my FI(some day I may want to RE?) date. :)
You can always try it out for awhile, and if it's a horrible experience, go back to dual-income. Nothing is permanent.
