Is it Midlife Crisis, Walkaway Spouse or the End?

just ended up having a long discussion with WAS. Primarily about finances, as we talked about bills and such. It was a respectful conversation. She did express she felt in limbo, but i didn't necessarily talk about specifics of how best she could go on without me, as thats seems odd and i wasn't sure how to respond. We did talk about finances once we move on and I think she may have realized just how much impact it may have, somewhat. She also shared that she she wants her freedom. I told her I respect that and she knows i don't pursue, beg, plead, bargain etc (without me saying so).She also shared that her mom knows about our situation and said she said i should have been nicer and more affectionate. Odd, because I've never been mean, but I listened and stated, i respected her saying so. She also shared a few snippets as to where i went wrong... not enough attention or PDA and, as well as occasional jealousy and not enough words of affirmation. She also seemed to recognize I always supported her and loved her, but just didn't say so enough. While not part of the conversation, I do realize that we definitely needed more time to enjoy our own activities
