Mine is mid-thirties. It's definitely depression but also has early mid-life crisis components along with some legitimate relationship problems that could be solved if not for the depression and mid-life crisis aspects. But the depression is the biggest component it seems and that's why no headway ever gets made. I need to go dark for a few weeks. I've never managed it for more than three days total. I probably should force myself to do it. I've managed to get us on friendlier terms and I'm scared to mess it up because it took a long time. He has a lot of resentments. Also he both claims I am free to move on and expresses resentment if I seem to be moving on in any way. He is concerned when I take on new activities and make new friends and such but I do it anyway. No, I'm not dating and don't want to be. But I'm not going to do this forever. I'm trying to see if some baby steps of progress I have noticed lead to anything more promising soon while GAL myself.
