I'm asking you this because we have discussed thinking it is relevant to our sitches. When H switched from country to rap, started going to shooting range & fishing (had never done these things throughout our R, but had during childhood), do you think it could be indicative to the time period in which he needs to "fix" now?
I asked him tonight (making reference to our son) at what age he shot bb guns the most & did the most fishing. He said around 10. I also asked him who his mom was married to at the time (started to question my questions), but I believe it was to the alcoholic/abusive 2nd marriage. They used to have to sneak out the back door of the house when he came home drunk. His kids were older & H's mom once came home & found H had been tied to a tree for HOURS by the older kids. Just a couple of weird snippets from reminiscing that stuck out to me over the years.
I don't think it is any specific time, or any specific event.
It is the overall feeling of "missing" something.
To him, these may be things that he has always wanted to do , but never felt free enough to do them.
In my experience, A has many new interests and hobbies that usually fizzle out pretty quickly. Different things that interest her one week and collect dust after that.
I think that they believe that happiness hinges on materialistic things. And it is a process that HAS to be followed.
MLC ? Life Crisis ? Life evaluation?
Jimbo ? Got an answer to what the hell is happening ?
It's about trying all the things that he always WANTED to do........nudge,nudge...
