Interesting. Little does she know (yet) that you are not the reason for that feeling, sounds like she's experiencing depression. Has she ever been diagnosed with it in the past? It's possible she's experiencing it for the first time and wrongly attributing it to you and the marriage. At 46 she could be in the beginning stages of menopause too, it affects different women in different ways but some go into depression. And some just decide they're done being a wife and mother and they want to try something else for a change. Just a quick warning- in my XW's case she never changed back to who she was before. Whatever happened to her when she went through menopause, it became permanent. She is a substantially different person now.

What a peculiar thing for her to say. Sounds like she's trying to convince HERSELF of that.
