Confusing indeed! But as I said before, I'm just shrugging this off. I do strongly believe that H is going through a MLC, and I believe one of the things I've read said that the H (or W) will do an occasional "temp check", to make sure that they still have you to fall back on, especially since they're going through so much confusion.
If you haven't read the "Midlife Crisis for Dummies" in MLC section already, you may find it "funny", in a sad kind of way...I enjoyed it and could see H in all of that.
OMG....that link is "insane"! It's so deadly accurate. I laughed and near puked reading it.
I have got to give this some thought. I literally thought I had gone insane and reading this....to see how common it all is, is strangley liberating.
I thought my W was smarter than this, but she must have downloaded this same script from the MLC/WAW Wannabee website.
I don't know if it makes me understand that my W is going through what many humans go through, that I should understand and it should give me more patience, or should I stop letting this game go on and stop the madness?
After reading this something recent flashed in my mind. We were watching the movie 50/50. The girlfriend of the young guy who has cancer gets bagged cheating. The girl is desperately trying to explain it in a way that makes her look like the "victim". She says "its not like we weren't having problems already". My W has said the exact same thing to me before. When she heard that line she flushed bright red and pulled her Belichek hoodie over her head. I thought....yeah baby....that was you.
I know my W is legititmitely going through a very severe crisis/breakdown and road back which I really didnlt see in terms of a MLC. But upon reading this...and its deadly accuracy...I guess she's going through it all at once.
