HR says the class is a go, starts next Tuesday! They "think" I have 8, but the email announcing the first class went out late yesterday, and there has been some new interest. People are stopping me and asking about it. It's all very exciting!
While I have things I want to (and have) changed about me, I also know I didn't cause W to fall into this crises. I always supported her and did loving things for her, and she did for me. This is how we made it this long with almost no complaints and very few fights. I specifically recall a conversation several years before BD were I told her that, unlike some spouses, I never considered her a nag. (very sweet of me, no?)
Last Sunday W and my two sisters ran the Shamrock Shuffle in Chicago. She had been looking forward to this for months, and had a great time. I told her how proud I was of her for sticking to her training program and besting her run time. She is quite happy with herself right now.

Really? Hmmm.
In other news, it's now official. I'm in limerence... with me! Yep, and we all know these things only last (on average) for about 2 years, so hopefully W signs back up to the M before then.
Seriously, I do believe being content/happy with ourselves and our life is key to dealing with the rejection of our MLC'er. Do what you need to do to make this happen y'all!
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
