Meganna, My H moved out this weekend and I have been reading my books on MLC round the clock. I also printed out the stages of MLC from this site to help remind me what is really going on. A couple of books I have found helpful: Men in Midlife Crisis by Jim Conway and also Awakening at Midlife by Kathleen Brehony. I also have printed out from this site Midlife for Dummies--something about the universality of this passage is comforting to me. When I read all of the ridiculous things that so many of these men say and they are identical to what my H has said to me, it helps me to remember that this is about them and not us.
Is your H pushing for divorcce or does he say he just needs time to figure things out?
Hang in there and remember: In the end things will be ok. If they aren't ok, it is not the end. jrr7
