FY, I want to ask you something and think about it long and hard...what transpired in the 18-24 months prior to her going into crisis? Something had to have triggered her full blown mlc. Up to the point of the trigger, she may have been moving along, but there was a gnawing feeling of discontent that she hadn't felt comfortable w/discussing w/you because she wasn't sure how you would react. Then again, mlcers assume that we know how they feel and recognize their unhappiness...unless they discuss it w/us, we don't know.
Give her time and space. Contact her only when necessary...allow her to come to you.
My response to this question is an important piece of my situation, so I am moving it to my thread, where it will be more accessible to me, and those reading my sitch both now and in the future.
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose. -Viktor Frankl
