I need some advice: he's having a whopper of a midlife crisis. I'm remaining positive. He "broke up" with his EA last month and is a little mopey, but friendlier to me and our teenagers. He is both puttering around the house making repairs and "well, I'm not sure if I am staying." I act all light and breezy around him, continuing to act like we are happlily married. BTW, he's not interested in sex, so I don't push it. This next week he is out of town on a family matter -- should I be totally silent or keep texting light little comments and answer when he texts me? A 180 would be complete silence. Last time he was gone both of us initiated the texts. What do you all think?

I agree. You definitely aren't in piecing yet. However, you are at a critical junction as to what your H wants. He lost the OW, so he's got a hole to fill. You have a chance to fill that hole. Slowly. Rebuild that friendship that you had together with no expectations.

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
