Kimmerz, Yes, it is true that if the mlcer's crisis is interrupted along the way, the second time around will be worse. In fact, if any of the life transitions are interrupted they will be far more extreme when they pick up where they left off. Examples of interruptions that may temporarily interrupt the crisis: illnesses susch as cancer, heart attack, stroke, almost killed in a car accident, friend dies suddenly, etc. We can also interrupt their crisis by some of the things that we say or do, for example, walking away and leaving them cold turkey, becoming involved w/someone else and the ultimate, remarrying. Not all of the mlcers will react to the above examples, those that are not in an extreme state very well could be interrupted.
If you go to the mlc archives and do a search, you may find some postings that we had a few years ago on the subject. Back approximately 10-11 years ago, we had a wonderful lady posting by the name of Patience. Unfortunately, her illness may have interrupted her h, but eventually, they were divorced because of his behavior.
It is best to allow them to go through the complete transitions in life as well as the mlc. No one wants any of them to get stuck.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
